In Malaysia, these riders experience a higher prevalence of WMSDs compared to non-occupational motorcyclists. This study aimed to quantify WBV exposure among food delivery riders in Eastern Peninsular Malaysia and to identify predictors of WBV exposure exceeding the Exposure Action Value (EAV) as defined by the EU Vibration Protection Directive 2002\/44\/EC.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Methods:<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>A cross-sectional study was conducted among 191 food delivery riders in Eastern Peninsular Malaysia. WBV exposure was measured using a calibrated Larson Davis HVM 100 Human Vibration Meter with a tri-axial accelerometer seat pad, following ISO 2631-1 standards. Data were analyzed using Blaze Software and SPSS 24.0. Daily Vibration Exposure, A(8), was calculated and compared with EAV and Exposure Limit Value (ELV). Multiple logistic regression was used to determine predictors of WBV exposure above the EAV limit.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Results:<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>\n                      The mean (SD) A(8) value was 0.624 (0.317)\u2009m\/s\u00b2, which exceeded the EAV limit. Three riders surpassed the ELV limit.
