Noise consultant - Noise Survey - Audiometry
If the noise level in your workplace is greater than the noise levels of a busy restaurant you may be exceeding the noise levels specified in the Noise regulations. As noise consultants we are able to carry out surveys for a number of apllications. The most popular being for compliance with the noise regulations or for planning purposes using the guidance in PPG 24. We are also qualified in audiometry and can provide on site audiomentric testing
Key benefits - noise regs
- enables you to comply with the regulations
- We dont only carry out a survey of the noise levels, we also carry out an assessment of the risks as required by the regulations
- We also advise on matters such as signage, training, noise reduction etc to enable you to comply with the requirements

What we do

- where appropriate we undertake whole or half shift monitoring of locations or individuals using a state of the art noise dosemeter
- we provide a clear report of our findings
- we carry out and report a noise risk assessment which identifies which areas or jobs are likely to exceed the lower or upper exposure limit values
- we identify the requirements for those areas in terms of signage, audiometry, reduction of exposure etc.

- we bring our audiometric testing equipment on site and carry out audiometry on individuals exposed above the upper exposure action value as required under the Regulations
