Whole-body vibration (WBV) is a physical phenomenon that is common among farmworkers and involves the transmission of the shaking motion of a vehicle or other farming equipment to the worker. WBV has been linked to a number of debilitating health effects, such as lower back problems, muscle cramps, increased blood pressure and heart rate, and impaired perception and balance.

Here are some helpful safety questions for farmworkers to keep in mind:

  • Is routine maintenance being performed on all farming equipment?
  • Is routine maintenance performed on seat suspensions? Are they properly adjusted for body weight?
  • Are vehicle operators taking appropriate breaks from an operation?
  • Are all tires properly inflated?
  • Are vehicle operators avoiding lifting heavy objects after driving for long periods of time?
