The first report deals with the correlation of vibration and cold exposure with white finger symptoms. The group in which daily vibration exposure was greatest, for which the 4-hour equivalent value of the frequency weighted vibration acceleration was estimated to be above 2 m/s2, showed a greater incidence of white finger than other groups, and the changes synchronized with the timing of motorbike antivibration measures. This group, however, also displayed evidence of varying degrees of cold-exposure white finger. The vibration exposure limit was considered to be over 2 m/s^2 as the 4-hour equivalent value of the frequency weighted vibration acceleration.}, pages = {235--239}, title = {VIBRATION EXPOSURE AND SYMPTOMS IN POSTAL CARRIERS USING MOTORBIKES}, volume = {57}, year = {1994} }
