ISO 5349-2

Hand-Arm Vibration Workplace Measurement Guidance

ISO 5349-2 provides practical guidance for implementing hand-arm vibration measurement procedures in real workplace settings, complementing the technical measurement specifications in ISO 5349-1. This guidance document addresses measurement strategies, instrumentation selection, operator training, and documentation practices required to obtain reliable exposure data in the field. Occupational hygienists, safety professionals, and accredited testing laboratories use this standard to design measurement campaigns that accurately capture worker exposure across typical tool use patterns and work cycles. Accreditation demonstrates competence in workplace measurement methodology and ability to translate technical standards into valid field practice. Proper application of this guidance ensures that vibration exposure assessments support defensible health risk conclusions.

What it measures

Daily vibration exposure in actual workplace conditions
Tool-specific vibration emission profiles
Worker exposure variability across shifts and tasks
Cumulative exposure over extended periods
Uncertainty of field measurements and data quality
