Book Description
Every day, millions of employees in Europe are exposed to loud noise at work. This is the case not just in heavy industries but also in a wide range of sectors including agriculture and service industries. Noise at work has been designated at the theme for the European Week for Safety and Health 2005, and this report examines noise control measures including relevant European Directives and supporting international standards. It looks at interventions in the workplace to examine and prevent the risks arising from noise exposure in terms of personal, social and economic cost of ill health and accidents.

Book Description
Although many of the findings related to noise lend themselves to a variety of interpretations, there is general agreement on a number of factors: 1. Noises of sufficient intensity have caused irreversible hearing damage. 2. Noises have produced physiological changes in humans and animals that in many instances have not resulted in adaptation. 3. The effects of noise are cumulative and, therefore, the levels and durations of noise exposure must be taken into account in any overall evaluation. The recognition of this fact has been translated into legislation specifying limits of total permissible noise exposure in industrial settings. 4. Noises can interfere with speech and other communication. 5. Noise can be a major source of annoyance by disturbing sleep, rest, and relaxation. 6. When community noise levels have reached sufficient intensity, social action has occurred to reduce their effects, This has often taken the form of creating new organizations (or using existing ones) to press for regulation by means of laws, ordinances and standards. - Overview.
