Consultancy Overview:
Excessive noise exposure over time has been shown to cause noise-induced hearing loss and tinnitus, which can be permanent. In the industrial sector, excessive noise is commonplace from noisy power tools and machinery, explosive sources e.g. cartridge operated tools or detonators, or repetitive noise impacts e.g. hammering, drop forging, pneumatic tools, etc. Optima Training and Consulting Ltd can assess your workplace and document a report for the management team ensuring they have control and reduce the effect of noise at work.
Process:
- Site audit to identify noise sources
- Quantification of employee’s daily noise exposure
- Completion of report with recommendations of PPE or mechanical interventions to ensure employees do not exceed exposure limits
