<jats:p>The paper presents satisfaction survey of the glove conditions while using vibrating hand tool in a manufacturing industry. The effects of vibration can cause health issues to the workers especially to those who are using vibrating hand tools. Hand held vibrating tools have become the common use in the manufacturing area. A study stated that many researchers have found that vibration exposures have become a common health problem in manufacturing industries. The research scope and objectives are to evaluate the satisfaction level of the workers using different types of gloves as well as to see how effective they are at reducing vibration exposure. The input data were collected by satisfaction survey among 30 respondents. There are three types of gloves conditions; (i) without glove, (ii) knitted glove and (iii) fingerless anti-vibration glove. The comparison of worker’s satisfaction level between these three conditions was summarized. It clearly showed that the use of fingerless anti-vibration glove is the most comfortable among the workers. The main advantage is that the fingers and thumb remain uncovered resulting in unconstructed movements.</jats:p>
