A HSE Project: Alternative processes to grinding to lower or eliminate vibration exposure

In the HSEs latest project, they have been looking at alternative processes to grinding due to the ill-health effects caused by the vibration exposure of such activities. The project shows that real-use vibration magnitude measurements on angle grinders consistently give values between 7 to 9 m/s². Vibration levels in this range increase the risk of […]

HSE Vibration Levels: What are they and why are they important?

HSE vibration levels are set to protect workers who operate vibration-emitting tools, particularly hand tools (there are limits for whole body vibration but we will cover these in another article).  The limits are set by the HSE, who are the governing body that regulate the exposure to vibration levels for operatives. Vibration exposure is limited
