In 2025 the MLITSD is launching a focused initiative on hand-arm vibration (HAV) exposure in Northern Ontario’s mining sector—and employers need to be prepared. This session will introduce the goals of the initiative and explain how HAV fits into the broader picture of mining risk management.
HAV-related health effects fall within the category of occupational illnesses with specific reporting requirements under the OHSA, but historically overlooked and misunderstood within the broader context of workplace hazard assessment and control.
Like other physical hazards, HAV exposure can—and should—be assessed using screening tools and measurement against established standards. Learn how Ontario’s health and safety system partners—including WSN, WSPS, CROSH, and OHCOW—are supporting this initiative and how they can help to "shake off" the risks of this often-overlooked hazard.
