This conditions is caused by vibrating tools.
These are claims where people suffer damage from using vibrating tools over a period of time. They can suffer numbness or a lack of feeling and the skin can appear pale - hence the name 'Vibration White Fingers'. An example would be someone who has been using pneumatic machinery, such as a drill, without adequate protective equipment or adequate breaks for rest. They could end up suffering numbness in his hands with the fingers appearing pale.
It will help us raise the chance of success in your claim if you can clearly identify when you first became aware of the problems, when you first sought medical advice and when you first linked the problems to your work. If you have changed employer, please supply us with a complete list of all the people/companies you have worked for where you have used vibrating tools or anything has happened that might have contributed to the development of the condition. Also it will help us if you can trace witnesses as to the work conditions, if anyone else has suffered or complained about the conditions before hand.
