Noise Awareness Course

All working environments are exposed to some level of noise. When employees are exposed to a daily or weekly average of 80 decibels employers have legal duties to control the risk.

Excessive noise at work causes thousands of people to suffer from deafness, ringing in the ear or other ear conditions.  It can also lead to dangerous miss-communication.

It is often employees working in industrial environments that are most at risk due to the presence of machinery.

Keep in mind, once your hearing has been damaged it cannot be repaired. It will only become worse over time.

To protect staff, The Control of Noise at Work Regulations came into force in Great Britain on the 6th of April 2006.

To comply, one duty is for employers to provide appropriate training to staff.

This Noise Awareness course takes 30 minutes to complete. It provides employees with the knowledge needed to work safely where excessive noise exists.
