What you will learn

This course provides guidance to employers on their responsibilities around noise in the workplace. It will help you recognise the risks, explain your duties as an employer and assess the workplace for hazards relating to noise. Not doing so could have consequences to your employees’ wellbeing, so take action now to reduce levels of noise. We’ll explain how.

About this course

We all exceed the limit on noise. Whether it’s listening to loud headphones, going to the cinema, or getting a train that makes that squeaky noise on the tracks every day because it never gets oiled. Living with noise and knowing that we may need a hearing aid one day is something we all accept as normal.

But noise can be dangerous, especially at work. And employers have a duty of care to look after their employees’ health. This course will teach you what the risks of noise at work are and what action you should take to protect your staff.

Engaging the learner

It’s not easy to explain a concept such as noise without damaging your hearing ourselves. So, we did what any of us would have done, we used our own experiences. Who hasn’t sat somewhere and been annoyed by the sounds around them? Speaking from experience, coupled with intense research from credible sources led us to create a course which is not only accurate, but relatable.

Approved by the worlds’ biggest H&S organization, IOSH, this cracking course uses stunning animation alongside interactivity to test learners’ knowledge in a clear, engaging way. Throughout the course, the learners’ abilities are tested through a mixture of single and multiple response questions. This engagement helps learners to retain that knowledge and keep everyone safe in the workplace.

Peace of mind with testing

This course also has an assessment at the end which allows learners to test their understanding and helps businesses demonstrate a level of competence in the topic.

With a bank of questions learners will get randomised assessments which means if people do fail the assessment, they aren't faced with the same quiz again; after all you want to test learners knowledge and not their ability to remember the right button to press second time around.
