The influence of vibration on human body is an issue that from several decades is a subject of many research and experiments. But most of these research concern on negative influences on human body. The paper presents methodology and results of research conducted on bus drivers of National Urban Transport in Tychy. The study involved fourteen drivers. First stage of the experiment included biomechanical and medical tests. After that psychological tests were made determining such factors like personality characteristics and stress resistance. Second stage included monitoring of psychomotor condition of drivers during night and day shifts, before and after work.
