Did you know that over 22 million U.S. workers are exposed to potentially harmful noise levels each year? The CDC recommends keeping noise exposure below 85 decibels for no more than 8 hours to prevent hearing damage. Proper use of hearing protection is essential to safeguard your hearing and maintain a safe work environment.
In this video, we guide you through the correct application of different types of hearing protection to ensure maximum effectiveness:
👂🏼 Disposable Ear Plugs:
• Roll and Insert: Start by rolling the ear plugs to make them as narrow as possible.
• Position Your Ear: Place one hand over your head to gently lift the upper part of your ear.
• Insert Properly: At an upward and outward angle, insert the ear plug into your ear canal for a snug fit.
👂🏼 Ear Muffs:
• Proper Placement: Position both earmuff cups over your ears.
• Ensure Seal: Make sure each cup is sealed tightly against your head and fully covers your ears for effective noise reduction.
👂🏼 Reusable Banded Ear Plugs:
• Position Correctly: Place the ear plugs over your ear canal with the band positioned under your chin.
• Adjust for Fit: Gently push the band and plugs with a slight twisting motion while pulling your ear for a secure fit.
Properly applied hearing protection helps prevent long-term hearing loss and damage. Learn these essential techniques to ensure you are using your hearing protection effectively.
