Thus, the understanding of ergonomic is very crucial. In ergonomic, whole-body vibration is one of the most important factors that should be emphasized. There are evidences of a relationship between occupational driver and low back pain, which show that the whole-body vibration could contribute to the low back pain in the occupational driver. Many researchers had published studies on whole-body vibration but none was done for Malaysian drivers. The main objective of this paper is to carry out a critical analysis of literature review on the effects of whole-body vibration towards human. This study will explain the recent literatures related to the postural, physiological and psychological affected by whole-body vibration and recent product innovation in measurement of whole-body vibration exposure. This review would help the researchers, academicians and practitioners to take a closer look on how the vibration will affect Malaysian drivers’ performance especially in the vehicles and transportation industry. 2014-10-09T07:19:48Z 2014-10-09T07:19:48Z 2009-12-01 Working Paper p.21-27 http://dspace.unimap.edu.my:80/dspace/handle/123456789/37345 en Proceeding of the National Symposium on Advancements in Ergonomics and Safety (ERGOSYM2009); Universiti Malaysia Perlis (UniMAP)
