Sound Insulation for Workplace Noise Reduction from Bellis

One in three Aussie workers affected by noise

Safe Work Australia's report released in February based on the National Hazard Exposure Worker Surveillance survey shows many Australian workers risk injury from loud workplace noise. Key findings include:

• Between 28 and 32 per cent of the Australian workforce are likely to work in an environment where they are exposed to non-trivial loud noise.
• Male workers were more likely to report exposure to loud noise than female workers.
• Young workers were more likely to report exposure to loud noise than older workers.
• Workers who worked at night were more likely to report exposure to loud noise than workers who worked during the day.
• The main industries in which workers reported exposure to loud noise were manufacturing and construction.
• Only 41 per cent of exposed workers reported they had received training in noise injury prevention.
