Industrial Disease Claims - Vibration White Finger
|
| |
 |
Bringing a Vibration White Finger (VWF) Claim
Vibration white finger (VWF) is a condition caused by exposure
to vibration caused by vibratory power tools. Vibration White Finger (VWF) causes
discomfort, tingling, numbness and whiteness in the fingers when
exposed to the cold. The greater and more frequent the exposure,
the more severe will be the symptoms of vibration white finger (VWF). There is little effective
treatment once Vibration White Finger (VWF) has developed. Employers can be held
responsible for the vibration white finger (VWF) related injuries caused as a result of such exposure from
1971 onwards which is the nominal date that all employers were or
should have been aware of the dangers posed by vibratory power
tools to their employees.
Tools likely to cause Vibration white Finger (VWF) include pneumatic drills and hammers
(including percussive and rotary hammers), percussive tools (e.g.
riveting, caulking, fettling and swaging), grinders (including
pedestal and hand-held grinders), and chain saws. |
