This report focuses on the exposure of Australian workers to vibration and the control measures that are provided in workplaces that eliminate, reduce or control worker exposure to vibration. The aims of this report are threefold. The first aim is to describe patterns of exposure to vibration in conjunction with patterns of vibration control provisions with respect to industry, occupation and other relevant demographic and employment variables. The second aim is to make recommendations, where possible, for the development of work health and safety and workers compensation policy. The final aim of this report is to provide researchers in this field with clear and constructive directions for future research.
