About the Podcast
The Hand–Arm Vibration Protection Guide is an informative OHS podcast episode that addresses the health risks employees may face due to exposure to hand–arm vibration and the preventive measures required to mitigate these risks.
This episode is based on the Implementation Guide on the Protection of Workers from Risks Related to Hand–Arm Vibration Exposure.

Through questions guided by a female host and explanations delivered by a male narrator, the topic is translated into practical, workplace-applicable guidance.
