In this study, the personal vibration exposure dimension of the pneumatic hammer used in natural stone mining was investigated. These investigations were carried out in a total of 25 natural stone mines of sedimentary, metamorphic and magmatic origin. Measurements were taken from employees with vibrating gloves and without gloves. Measurements based on TS EN ISO 5349-1 [1] standard were calculated as RMS (m/s2). The values were evaluated according to the exposure point system. As a result of the evaluation, the non-glove study ranged between 5451 and 15798 points, while the vibration damper glove ranged between 3666 and 11725 points. These results have shown that employees using pneumatic hammer may have a serious health and safety problem as a result of HAV (hand-arm vibration) exposure. Employers must take active steps in accordance with the regulation to reduce exposure.
