Eurospray Systems Limited recognize
our duty under the Noise at Work Regulations 1989 to inform our
clients of the noise characteristics of our paint finishing plant.
Clients are reminded that, in
accordance with the Noise at Work Act 1989, there are the following
actions levels:
a)
First Action Level. This means daily personal exposure
of 85 dba
b) Second Action Level. This means a daily personal
exposure of 90 dba
c) Peak Action Level. This means a peak sound pressure of
200 pascals
We cannot always provide accurate working noise levels
of our plant prior to installation. It is likely, however, that some
of our plant operates at levels above the first action level.
Every employer shall ensure, so far as practicable,
that when any of his employees are likely to be exposed to the second
action level or above or to the peak action level or above, that those
employees are provided with suitable personal ear protectors. These,
when properly worn, can reasonably be expected to keep the risk of
damage to that employee’s hearing to below that arising from exposure
to the second action level or, as the case may be, to the peak action
level
