Noise levels The symptoms of noise induced hearing loss are subtle in the early stages.  Hearing loss tends to occur first for high-pitched sounds only.  Consequently, the volume of sound heard may be unchanged but the quality of it lessens.  Speech may be heard but not completely understood.  The presence of background noise can make speech hard to understand.  Noise induced hearing loss has been reported to be accompanied by a ringing in the ears (tinnitus) in 23% of subjects. 

HSE advice for employers Decide whether you might have a problem Get the noise assessed Ear protection programme Tell the employees Reduce noise as far as is practical Check your programme is working

EAR PROTECTION ZONE EAR PROTECTORS MUST BE WORN If people work in noise-hazardous areas they will need ear protection.                        EAR PROTECTION ZONE EAR PROTECTORS MUST BE WORN Protection should be freely available and workers must know that unless they wear it there is some risk to hearing.
