Since 2005 the Control of Vibration at Work Regulations have been safeguarding UK employees against hand-arm vibration syndrome (HAVS).
The 2005 Vibration Regulations ensure employers to conduct regular HAVS assessments to proactively prevent HAVS and related long-term health issues.

We faced the challenge of keeping track of our employees HAVS exposure:

  • Inefficient Process
  • No Approval Workflow
  • Lack of Transparency
  • Decoupled Actions

The Solution

We contacted our IT partner, Accord, and asked if there was anything they could help us with.
