  3. WHAT IS NOISE When noise gets loud enough — It is unpleasant — It is distracting — It is tiring & stressful — Higher levels / long exposure can cause permanent hearing damage — 85dB(a) Noise Action Level 02

  4. HEARING LOSS 03

  5. WORKERS MUST…. 04

  6. HOW DO I KNOW IF IT IS NOISY 05

  7. HEARING PROTECTION • Does not stop noise • Reduces the noise level entering the ear • Only works if used and maintained correctly 06

  8. HEARING PROTECTION Zero reduction Zero reduction Reduction in Noise in Noise in Noise 07

  9. HEARING PROTECTION No noise reduction 08

  10. FITTING TIPS - ROLL-DOWN FOAM EARPLUGS ROLL - entire earplug into a crease-free cylinder 1 PULL BACK - pinna by reaching over head with free hand, gently pull 2 top of ear up and out INSERT - earplug well into ear canal and hold until it fully expands 3 09

  11. FITTING TIPS - MULTIPLE-USE EARPLUGS REACH - While holding the stem, reach hand overhead and gently pull top of ear up and back. INSERT - Insert earplug so all flanges are well inside the ear canal. FIT - If properly fitted, only the stem of the earplugs should be visible to someone looking at you from the front. 10

  12. FITTING TIPS - VISUAL + ACOUSTICAL CHECKS VISUAL CHECK - The earplug should sit well inside the ear canal and not stick out. ACOUSTICAL CHECK - Cup hands over ears and release. Earplugs should block enough noise so that covering your ears with hands should not result in a significant noise difference. 11

  13. FITTING TIPS - EARMUFF INSTRUCTIONS 1 - Place earcups over each outer ear 2 - Adjust the headband by sliding the headband up or down at the attachment buttons 3 - The ear cushions should seal firmly against the head 12
