Hearing Protection

Personal protective equipment, such as hearing muffs and plugs, can be used to reduce workers' exposures to noise after engineering controls have been implemented. This video examines the benefits and limitations of hearing protectors in work environments.

Very clear and to the point; great work!

Well explained. I found that my earmuffs provide the best sound reduction (and are easier to use than ear plugs)!

thanks for the very informative video on hearing protection especially about the foam ear plugs, i thought you had to just force them in somehow and that was it! but having watched the video i know different now, and it's a lot cheaper than buying electronic ear muffs. Thanks for posting..Bill

Finding good quality information on this subject in video form is difficult, but this video was helpful. I didn't know that pulling the ear back before inserting helps, but now that I tried it, I'm thankful, because it really does help. I was told to roll them until thin and just insert, but adding the step of pulling the ear back really does do a better job. Also, you can watch this video at 1.5x speed and still understand everything in less time. Any faster and it is harder to understand. My question now is, does noise cancelling technology proven to reduce hearing loss?

Thank you

The last youtube video I watched on hearing protection told me that ear plugs are by far better for noise reduction than earmuffs. In my experience, earmuffs feel

thanks for the explanation

[@mybetterhalf6373]

Your posted info contradicts the efficacy of compression plugs to muffs. Perhaps some evidentiary citations from OSHA...?

[@GrimReaper-te7sr]

Does this goes for OSHA 1926 operations
