Control of Vibration at Work Regulations 2005 (SI 2005/1093)

HAVS Daily Exposure Calculator

Calculate a worker's daily hand-arm vibration exposure in m/s² A(8) and HSE exposure points. Compare against the legal Exposure Action Value (EAV: 2.5 m/s², 100 points) and Exposure Limit Value (ELV: 5.0 m/s², 400 points). Select from all 41 HSE reference tools or enter your own measured values.
