## Description

The Environment Agency has a legal obligation to comply with the Control of Vibration at Work Regulations 2005 to ensure that risks from vibration are controlled, provide information, instruction and training to employees on the risk and the actions being taken to control risk and provide health surveillance\. Operational field teams use a variety of hand held tools and hand guided powered tools \(both owned and hired via a national contract\)\. Users are exposed to hand arm vibration \(HaV\) on a regular basis for both planned and reactive work activities\. Their exposure to these vibrations must be minimised as much as possible, in accordance with Statutory guidance\. The EA has previously recorded HaV through a monitoring system attached to all tools, using the data provided to ensure HaV levels are properly managed\. It is mandatory that our staff use this system to help reduce vibration exposure to a low level as is reasonably practical and thus reduce the likelihood of any long term health effects they could experience\. Additional information: The NAT - Hand arm Vibration Monitoring Equipment Contract, has been awarded on a Single Tender Route \(STA\) to the following supplier: Reactec Limited\. whose registered office is at Vantage Point, 3 Cultins Road, Edinburgh, EH11 4DF and whose registered number is SC221428\. This 12 months contract will commence on the 1st April 2021 and will terminate on the 31st March 2022\.
