In this issue, we are pleased to feature HAVi as Vibration Management Company of the Month.
Recognising the need for better worker protection, Mike Swan founded HAVi Technologies in 2008. Motivated by the limited solutions available at the time, he developed a product that not only met legislative requirements but also prioritised the improvement of hand health outcomes for workers.
17 years later, HAVi remains steadfast in its mission: to enhance hand health outcomes for workers exposed to vibration and to ensure organisational compliance with health and safety regulations, offering a range of innovative solutions designed to monitor and manage vibration exposure effectively.
Leading the health & safety sector, HAVi is the only provider of a holistic solution to the management of HAVs. We spoke to Kate Louise Cole, Managing Director, who explained the benefits to working with HAVi, “We assure compliance by starting with an audit of the current processes. We then measure tool vibration magnitude in compliance with BS EN ISO 5349-2 and BS EN 8041 to create an asset database of tools and use unique sampling methodology of vibration exposure to produce a suitable and sufficient risk assessment for our clients.”
“Furthermore, our trademarked HAVi ActivIQ and HAVsRiskIndex make it easy for our clients to take action on exposure data by providing bespoke insights. Underpinning all of this, is our bespoke training and engagement activity to ensure that the clients project succeeds, maximises ROI and most importantly, the workers remain protected.”
