Relating Occupational Exposure to Persistent Health Effects
The objectives of the Workshop are addressed using epidemiologic data from population groups in occupations involving exposure to hand-transmitted vibration and/or shocks. Pooled analyses demonstrate the limitations of the exposure–response relation in ISO 5349-1:2001, and that <i>A</i>(...

description | The objectives of the Workshop are addressed using epidemiologic data from population groups in occupations involving exposure to hand-transmitted vibration and/or shocks. Pooled analyses demonstrate the limitations of the exposure–response relation in ISO 5349-1:2001, and that <i>A</i>(8) is inappropriate for calculating the daily exposure to shocks as well as to continuous vibration. Alternative frequency weightings and metrics for daily exposure are explored. |
