Noise at work is a hazard

Protect your employees' hearing with COTRAL hearing protections

Deafness associated with working in a noisy environment is at the top of the list of occupational illnesses. It is the fourth most frequent disorder according to the INRS and the WHO.

What a noisy working environment may cause

Child and grandfatherA large number of studies on the harmful effects of noise have proven that any person working in a noisy environment may suffer from:

  • Stress (as soon as s/he arrives at work and throughout the day, but also in the evening when returning home)
  • Tinnitus
  • Hearing loss

Individuals regularly exposed for several years to a high volume of noise are no longer able to hear sounds normally. A sound amplifying hearing aid becomes necessary to allow normal communication with their family and those around them.

The "noise risk" can be controlled

By equipping your company's employees using COTRAL customised hearing protections, you will protect them against all the risks associated with noise and contribute to offering them a better future life.

Conduct a study of your employees' exposure to noise

COTRAL Laboratory perform an analysis of the different working environments within your company in order to fit each of your employees with a type of customised hearing protection, some being more or less endangered than others by the problems associated with noise.

The law protects employees
