Long term and frequent exposure to loud noise can permanently damage a person?s hearing, possibly
resulting in deafness.
Acute short term hearing loss can result from exposure to an instantaneous loud noise e.g. an explosion. This may also have a long-term affect.
Damage from excess noise can occur by:
? failing to recognise hazardous noise;
? not using suitable hearing protection;
? wearing hearing protection incorrectly;
? using faulty or damaged hearing protection; or
? failing to wear hearing protection in designated areas.
