Machine Noise Assessment Worcester
Noise at Work Consultancy can carry out Machine Noise Assessments across Worcester to assist employers in protecting the health and well being of their workforce. The Noise at Work Consultancy was established in response to an ever-increasing demand for noise exposure testing and evaluation in the UK.
There are legal limits on the levels of noise to which workers may be exposed.
To comply with the exposure limits you must ensure that your workers’ noise
exposure, reduced by an appropriate factor if they are using personal hearing
protection, is not above:
87 decibels for daily or weekly personal noise exposure (LEP,d or LEP,w)
140 decibels for peak sound pressure (LCpeak).
Complying with exposure limits is only one aspect of your legal duties under the
Noise Regulations. It is separate from your duty to reduce risks from noise to as
low as is reasonably practicable.
With the support of the Noise at Work Consultancy, you as an employer can create and sustain a safe working situation for your employees where machine noise exposure is reduced to a safe level and managed effectively. You will therefore comply with the control of ‘Noise at Work Regulations 2005’ and give yourself protection against future compensation claims for noise induced hearing loss. Contact us today if you require a machine noise assessment in Worcester.
