Exposure to whole-body vibration (WBV) may arise from the floor or seat of our vehicles or equipment. Over time, this may lead to discomfort, low back pain, circulatory changes, and systemic disorders. This ViTool Talk highlights how to recognise the hazards and discusses ways to effectively minimise the risks associated with WBV.

This talk, along with others in the series, focus on how workplace design and healthy routines can help your workplace walk the talk on health and safety. They can be used to stimulate learning and encourage discussion on a range of important topics, teaching workers how to identify, report, and manage workplace hazards.
