About course

Hand-Arm Vibration Syndrome (HAVS) is a significant, incurable, yet preventable occupational disease in the UK, with nearly 2 million people at risk. If you’re responsible for minimising the exposure of workers to vibrating tools and preventing vibration-related injuries at work, then our CPD-accredited Hand-Arm Vibration Training is the ideal choice for you. Our comprehensive HAVS training course is suitable for employers, managers, supervisors, employees, and anyone in charge of workplace safety.

The Hand Arm Vibration Awareness training explains what Hand-Arm Vibration Syndrome (HAVS) is, how it develops over time, and why early recognition and prevention are vital to protecting long-term health. Here, you will gain a broad understanding of how prolonged exposure to hand-arm vibration can cause damage, often resulting in serious and irreversible conditions. This hand arm vibration training course also explains employer and employee responsibilities, including vibration risk assessments, exposure action values, and compliance with health and safety regulations.

The Hand Arm Vibration Awareness training offers essential guidance on reducing vibration exposure through effective control measures such as correct tool selection, equipment maintenance, safe working techniques, and job rotation. By the end of our HAVS training course, learners will be able to recognise early warning signs of vibration-related injury, understand vibration exposure limits, and apply effective control strategies in the workplace.
