Abstract
Effects of the vibration influence is usually considered depending on a location of the vibration transmission and a position of the human body during operation. Whole-body vibration occurs when the body is supported by a structure which vibrates significantly. There are two principal work opportunities, i.e. sitting on a vibrating seat or standing on a vibrating floor. Local vibration occurs when the limbs are in contact with operating equipments that generate oscillatory forces.
