HAVS Health Surveillance | Hand Dynamometers
As an employer, safeguarding the health and wellbeing of your workers is of paramount importance. That's why we offer a comprehensive range of HAVS health surveillance equipment for Occupational Health professionals - the essential tools needed to proactively monitor, assess and mitigate the risks of hand-arm vibration exposure in the workplace. The equipment in this category is ideal for the health assessments in relation to Tier 3 and Tier 4 of the HSE's guide to Hand Arm Vibration.
Hand-Arm Vibration Syndrome (HAVS) is a debilitating condition caused by prolonged, repeated exposure to vibrations from power tools and machinery. Left unmanaged, it can lead to permanent nerve, muscle and circulatory damage in the hands and arms. The main aim for employers is prevention and as HAVS is difficult to recognise in the early stages, health surveillance for the condition is essential for detecting those employees at risk. Our specialised diagnostic devices provide the means to catch HAVS early, empowering you to implement effective controls and protect your employees from future health issues.
Castle Group's selection of testing equipment includes:
Hand Grip Dynamometers
Precisely measure hand and forearm strength to identify early neuromuscular changes. Supplied fully calibrated with certification.
Touch-Test Sensory Evaluators
Supplied as a 5-piece convenient kit with a protective case
Purdue Pegboards
The Purdue Pegboard Test is a widely used assessment tool that measures an individual's manual dexterity, hand-eye coordination, and fine motor skills.
