Abstract

This report discuss about the Ergonomic Assessment, Whole Body Vibration (WBV) for Stamping Machine at Jati Beringin Sdn Bhd. High magnitude of whole-body vibration formed by the stamping machine may cause diseases and health problems to the human especially a low back pain. This study will give an account of daily exposure to vibration A(8) and Vibration Dose Value (VDV) exposed to the workers during work and the effects produced by the exposure towards human body. The standard gives ‘exposure limit values’ and ‘exposure action values’. The result of different specification machine will compare with reference from International Standard Organization 2631 (ISO 2631). For prevention, minimum protection requirements for workers when they are exposed, in the course of their work, to risks arising from vibration . It also specifies employers' obligations with regard to determining and assessing risks, sets out the measures to be taken to reduce or avoid exposure and details how to provide information and training for workers. Any employer who intends to carry out work involving risks arising from exposure to vibration must implement a series of protection measures before and during the work.
