What are Vibration Policies?

Vibration policies outline how organisations assess, manage and reduce the risks associated with exposure to vibration in the workplace.

Exposure to vibration, whether from hand-held tools, machinery or whole-body vibration from vehicles, can have serious health consequences. Conditions such as hand-arm vibration syndrome (HAVS) and back injuries are linked to long-term or uncontrolled exposure. A clear policy ensures that risks are properly managed and employees are protected.

What Do Vibration Policies Cover?

A vibration policy typically includes:

• Identification and assessment of tasks involving vibration exposure

• Risk assessments in line with the Control of Vibration at Work Regulations 2005

• Provision of suitable tools, machinery and vehicles with lower vibration levels

• Maintenance and inspection procedures for equipment

• Limits on exposure times and rotation of tasks to reduce risk

• Provision of protective equipment where appropriate

• Training for employees on recognising early signs of vibration-related conditions

• Reporting procedures for concerns, symptoms or unsafe practices

• Links to health and safety, risk management and occupational health policies

A clear vibration policy helps staff understand the risks, follow safe working practices and know how to report issues at an early stage.

It also ensures compliance with legal requirements such as the Control of Vibration at Work Regulations 2005, which set out exposure limits and employer responsibilities.

By actively managing vibration risks, organisations can protect employee health, maintain productivity and reduce the likelihood of costly claims or enforcement action. A well-implemented vibration policy demonstrates a commitment to worker safety and long-term wellbeing.
