Latest News from our team
Workplace Audiometric Testing
Workplace audiometric testing is required by the NSW Work Health and Safety Regulation 2011 every two (2) years. AS 1269.4:2005 Occupational Noise Management Part 4 Audiometric Testing recommends audiometric testing on an annual basis. It is recommended that annual audiometric testing be undertaken particularly when there is potential exposure to ototoxic agents or hand arm vibration (HAV).
Welding Fume Exposure
he health effects of welding fume can vary considerably. This is due to the health effects being dependant on the particular metal, fluxes and cleaning agents that may be present within the welding process. State Workplace Health and Safety Regulations require the airborne concentration of welding fume does not exceed the exposure standard for each constituent of the welding fume.
Whole Body Vibration Risk Assessments
Mobile plant operators and transport workers in road, rail and air are at significant risk of whole body vibration. The potential health effects include primarily back pain and injury, however there is also reported health concerns relating to reproductive, digestive disorders.
