Dealing with the background noise? Premier Safety can help you break-through the noise. 

What your workers hear – or don’t hear – while on the job site can be damaging to not only their ears but their health, too. Exposure to high and even low-level noises can cause permanent hearing loss without proper ear protection.

According to OSHA 22 million workers are exposed to potentially damaging noise at work each year. Last year, U.S. businesses paid more than $1.5 million in penalties for not protecting workers from noise. In addition, it is estimated that $242 million is spend annually on workers' compensation for hearing loss disability.

Loud noises not only harm your ears but can contribute to a reduction in workplace productivity. Keep your workers safe by scheduling regular hearing screenings and using the appropriate ear protection.
