HAV Hand Arm Vibration Compliance… protect your workers and your business!

Using hand-held power tools puts workers at risk from vibration exposure and puts businesses at risk of prosecution, and severe financial penalties that could reach hundreds of thousands of pounds. Companies are legally bound to demonstrate compliance with the Control of Vibration at Work Regulations 2005, and the complex legislation laid out in the HSE Health and Safety Executive L140 HAVS guidance document. This not only safeguards employees but also protects businesses from litigation.

Compliance means the provision of a suitable and sufficient risk assessment for hand arm vibration. Critical actions such as risk audits, policy and processes, accurate tool measurement, exposure monitoring, training, and the identification of relevant control measures and corrective actions must be completed to demonstrate compliance.

Hassle-free compliance with HAV hand arm vibration legislation

Protrade have partnered with the market leaders and experts in HAV hand arm vibration risk management, HAVi, to bring an exclusive fixed cost, affordable and hassle-free compliance offering. With decades of experience in this field, HAVi can ease the burden of managing HAV hand arm vibration risk to the latest L140 guidelines, whilst Protrade’s expertise in tools and consumable items focusses on reducing vibration levels without compromising productivity… in many cases providing efficiency gains.

To become compliant, there is a one-off initial engagement fee of £1800+vat, which ensures a suitable and sufficient HAV hand-arm vibration policy is in place, and then a monthly cost from £299+vat to ensure ongoing compliance – everything required from initial audit through to monitoring, recording, training and ongoing improvements… with no hidden costs.

Why wait for the HSE Health and Safety Executive or a solicitor to call? You can become fully compliant with HAV hand arm vibration legislation within a matter of days!
