Safety Direct : Hearing Protection

Hearing Protection

Hearing Protection

While noise induced hearing loss is permanent and irreversible, it is completly preventable. The new European Union Directive that took effect in Feb 2006, aims to prevent worker exposure to harmful noise. The music and entertainment sectors came under the directive in April 2008.

Remember selecting the right protection is more than choosing the earplug with the highest SNR rating. Consider the material, shape, and size.

SNR Single Noise Rating helps you compare the level of protection by various products.

The 4C’s of Hearing Protection

Communication

The right hearing protector reduces noise to a safe level, but avoids overprotection that compromises communication and worker safety on the job.

Caring

Many people don’t realize that hazardous noise has cumulative effects. Demonstrating the importance of hearing protection is an important step in a successful hearing conservation program, and an important factor in maintaining an overall healthy lifestyle

Comfort

Ears come in all shapes and sizes. The right hearing protector should feel comfortable in the ear or on the head — that means different products for different workers

Convenience

At work, give employees easy access to hearing protectors —and make sure that the choices are specifically matched to the work environment
