Abstract
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the whole-body vibration in Japanese labor environment using the International Standard, ISO 2631. This standard defines the evaluation of the adverse-health effect of whole-body vibration. Vibrations of agricultural machines, construction machines, bus and taxi were measured according to ISO 2631. And these data were assessed using weighted root-mean-square acceleration and vibration dose value of ISO 2631-1. As a result, it has become clear that the measurement vibration level is so high as to affect labor's health.
