HAVS Advanced: Construction (US)
Tier 2
Operational Overview
Powered tools make construction work faster and safer in plenty of ways. But repeated vibration from grinders, breakers, drills and compactors carries a hidden cost: permanent damage to the nerves, blood vessels and joints in your hands and arms.
This course gives you the knowledge to recognise vibration risk on US construction sites, understand how exposure builds up over months and years, and know exactly what controls and habits actually protect you.

Instructional Objectives
- Explain what HAVS is and how it develops from repeated vibration exposure.
- Identify tools and tasks on US construction sites most likely to cause harmful vibration exposure.
- Interpret vibration magnitude and exposure time data using recognised reference values.
- Apply engineering and administrative controls to reduce vibration exposure.
- Select and maintain tools to minimise vibration output.
- Respond appropriately when a worker reports early symptoms of HAVS.
