Published By | Publication Date | Number of Pages |
BSI | 2020 | 38 |
This document outlines strategies to be used in dealing with noise problems in existing and planned workplaces by describing basic concepts in noise control (noise reduction, noise emission, noise immission and noise exposure). It is applicable to all types of workplaces and all types of sources of sound which are met in workplaces, including human activities.
It includes those important strategies to adopt when buying a new machine or equipment.
This document deals only with audible sound.
