Occupational exposure to whole-body vibration may cause health risk. Thus it is important to know the sources of vibration and the number of exposed workers. The aim of the study was to evaluate the number of men and women exposed to whole-body vibration in Poland. The results of the study indicate that almost 50,000 workers are exposed to vibration exceeding the threshold limit values.
