EN The article is the second part of the article entitled “Assessment of the effectiveness of anti-vibration gloves. A comparison of the conventional and energy method. Introduction –part one” [4], which presents the assumptions and the construction of models of the biodynamic system consisting of the human operator, the anti-vibration glove and the hand-held power tool. The second part is devoted to a comparative analysis and interpretation of results obtained by means of the two methods. The analysis reveals a positive effect of the anti-vibration glove as a personal protective equipment, which reduces the operator’s exposure to vibrations generated by the angle grinder. However, the effectiveness of the glove was assessed differently by the conventional or the energy method. It was also found that the energy method was a better tool for analyzing the impact of vibrations at different phases of the tool’s operation.
