I now know more about how the ear is affected by different sounds and why.
Good and easy to follow, as always the results of the questions and test show level of understanding to people like myself
Slide 1 No clear indication that noise is pressue waves no differential betwenn percussion noise and percussion noise (e.g Gunshot) no indication of noise being measured in dbA and dbB and the relationships Slide 2 All Hearing loss ( something like 97%) is gradual and the reason why it is such a bad problem is that few people realise the Advisory Hearing Protection Zones (AHPZ) have been or should be established to protect future hearing but will only do so if operators buy in to protecting themselves and using the hearing protection provided at AHPZ, slide 3 somewhat confusing, Slide 4 Confusing in that its the first mention of dbA and implies all hearing protection reduces noise levels by 20dbB (no indication of relationship between dbA and dbB) Slide 5 First statement an over simplification and incorrect re when Risk Assessment must be done also not sure of advised hierarchy of controls is correct order/sequence Slide 7 again an over simplification in respect of when hearing checks must offered (and should be taken up) also staff right to refuse and consequenes of refusing not explained.
Although it is good to know which part of the ear does what, it is irrelevant to a factory employee. We do not need to be doctors, just protected from hearing loss.
A well-structured and interesting course.
