Noise and vibration are two common workplace hazards that can have serious long-term effects on employee health. For instance, excessive noise can result in tinnitus and long-term hearing loss, whereas vibration can lead to musculoskeletal injuries and nerve damage. Fortunately, with diligent safeguarding measures, employees do not have to endure adverse health effects. In this course, you will learn more about the risks associated with noise and vibration, and how employers and employees alike can play a role in creating a safer workspace.
