Overview

Noise-induced hearing loss (NIHL) remains a significant occupational health issue in the UK. According to the Health and Safety Executive (HSE), over 20,000 workers in the UK suffer from noise-induced hearing problems every year. This is a critical concern, especially in industries such as manufacturing, construction, and entertainment, where high noise levels are prevalent.

The impact of workplace noise extends beyond hearing loss. Chronic exposure to loud noise can lead to stress, fatigue, and even cardiovascular problems. Data from the HSE indicates that excessive noise at work contributes to around 1,000 new cases of work-related hearing loss annually. Moreover, employees working in noisy environments often report decreased concentration and increased risk of accidents, impacting overall productivity and safety. It is essential to have knowledge about noise so that you can safeguard your hearing and that of others. Understanding noise hazards and implementing effective control measures not only helps in preventing hearing loss but also contributes to a safer, more productive workplace.

This Noise Awareness Training course provides essential knowledge on noise awareness, offering insights into identifying, assessing, and controlling noise at the workplace. You'll explore the health effects of loud noise, learn about safe hearing practices, and delve into noise control laws and legislation. Additionally, the Noise Awareness Training course covers hearing conservation at the workplace and the implementation and evaluation of hearing conservation programmes. By the end of this Noise Awareness Training course, you'll be well-equipped to promote and maintain a healthy auditory environment in any work setting.

A regulated qualification is delivered by a learning institution which is regulated by a government body. In England, the government body which regulates courses is Ofqual. Ofqual regulated qualifications sit on the Regulated Qualifications Framework (RQF), which can help students understand how different qualifications in different fields compare to each other. The framework also helps students to understand what qualifications they need to progress towards a higher learning goal, such as a university degree or equivalent higher education award.

An endorsed course is a skills based course which has been checked over and approved by an independent awarding body. Endorsed courses are not regulated so do not result in a qualification - however, the student can usually purchase a certificate showing the awarding body's logo if they wish. Certain awarding bodies - such as Quality Licence Scheme and TQUK - have developed endorsement schemes as a way to help students select the best skills based courses for them.
