HAV arises from tools like grinders, drills and jackhammers and can lead to hand‑arm vibration syndrome (HAVS) and other MSDs. We measure and assess exposures per AS ISO 5349 and implement controls that reduce vibration magnitude and duration.
• Measurements are evaluated against standards such as AS ISO 5349‑1/2 and guidance from the European Directive 2002/44/EC, which sets an exposure action value of 2.5 m/s² and a limit value of 5 m/s².
• We assess factors that affect exposure, including tool design, condition, grip force, trigger time, posture and environmental conditions.
• We recommend controls based on industry best practice standards and regulatory guidance
A results and comprehensive report, control plan, training materials for early symptom reporting, and procurement guidance for lower‑vibration tools.
