Vibration can enter the body through contact with vibrating machines or surfaces. This is known as segmental vibration exposure when it affects a body part like hands, or whole body vibration exposure when it affects the entire body. Segmental exposure is common in workers using hand tools and can cause damage to hands and arms. Whole body vibration in vehicle operators is linked to increased risks of disorders in various body systems. Vibration exposure is measured and limits are set to reduce health risks, with higher risks at levels exceeding daily exposure limits.
