Mobile machinery operators are exposed to whole-body vibrations (WBV) and unfavourable postures which may lead to adverse effects on the spine. 14 subjects were exposed to WBV on a rigid seat without a backrest. They adopted nine different postures. Apparent massand seat-to-head transmissibilitywere measured in the horizontal (X), lateral (Y) and vertical (Z) directions. They were compared to the reference posture from the ISO 2631-1 standard. Head and thorax inclinations in the sagittal plane had significant effects. An increase in the main resonant frequencytogether with a decrease inwere observed in the Z direction. A second lower frequency peak also appeared (for X,for Z).increased in the X and Z directions forincreased in the X direction. Head and thorax inclinations in the frontal and the horizontal planes had weak or non-significant effects. Practitioner summary:  Mobile machinery operators are exposed to whole-body vibration and unfavourable body posture. Laboratory measurements of the apparent massand the seat-to-head transmissibilityin the horizontal (X), lateral (Y) and vertical (Z) directions are presented for 9 postures relevant to the exposure at the driving position and to the effects of vibration on the spine.
