What's all the noise about?

There are four key reasons why every workplace should determine
if their facility exceeds the allowable noise levels.

• Legislation – The Victorian Health and Safety regulations (2017) recommends that every workplace MUST have a risk assessment performed to determine their noise risk levels.
• Premiums – The result of workplace noise over exposure is hearing loss, a Workcover claimable injury. Your premiums may be directly affected by your claims history. Ensuring that your claims are minimised will keep your Workcover premiums as low as possible.
• Productivity – Independent studies have shown that when noise levels are reduced, there is an immediate lift in productivity, and a reduction in accidents. This is because the staff can obtain and maintain higher levels of concentration in lower noise levels.
