Hand Arm Vibration Syndrome is classed as an industrial disease. This condition is caused by regular exposure to high levels of vibratory tool usage usually by using tools such as jack hammers, grinders, windy pick etc. HAVS covers conditions such as vibration white finger (VWF) and vibration induced carpal tunnel syndrome (CTS). It is estimated that about 1 in 10 people who use vibrating power tools on a regular basis go on to suffer with HAVS.
