Did you know that Construction workers are among the most affected by industrial deafness? Safe Work Australia research shows that the construction industry is the third noisiest industry sector.
Many of the workers are surprised at this result, particularly when they may have considered it to be a ‘Quiet’ Day during which they only conducted the occasional noisy activity. However the meaning of a ‘Quiet’ Day to a Tradie is somewhat different to somebody who works in an Office.
Are you at risk?
If the noise around you makes it necessary for you to raise your voice to make yourself heard to somebody one metre away, your hearing is probably at risk. Repeated exposure to excessive noise will eventually lead to permanent damage.
The tools and equipment that pose a risk of noise induced hearing loss include:
Circular Saws
Piling hammers
Concrete breakers
Manual hammers
Nail Guns
Workers in the vicinity of a noisy plant
Service and equipment maintenance workers.
BREATHING AIR TESTING
Newton Safety can now provide a service to industrial sand blasting, paint booth & diving compressor environments in the way of breathing air quality testing, using the instrument of choice for monitoring the purity of breathing air in the low pressure range.
In combination with the Dräger Oil Impactor, our system achieves an unprecedented quality of breathing air monitoring for end user by Using the Dräger Aerotest Alpha Test System .
Contamination in compressor supplied air can be a serious health risk. Compressor breathing air quality testing provides confidence to the Employer to provide a safe place of work, and to workers that rely on the system for air.
The breathing air quality testing requirement for air supplied respirators is often one of the least understood elements of compressed-air-supplied breathing air equipment. Workplace Health and Safety Law requires that breathing air meet specified requirements and be tested to an agreed schedule as detailed in Australian Standard 1715:2009, Selection, Use and Maintenance of Respiratory Equipment.
