Hearing protection is an essential part of your PPE if you work in an environment where your hearing is at risk. Hearing protection should be assesed by employers and issued to employees where extra protection for the ears is needed, ensuring maximum workplace safety. Hearing protection should be worn whenever there is a possibility of damage to hearing. This includes loud noise or prolonged exposure to noise that cannot be reduced. Construction site noise, for example, is often excessive and excessive noise can lead to hearing loss. If noise levels reach over 85 decibels then adequate hearing protection must be provided.
