Cowles Company, asks whether a new law that attempts to prevent strategic lawsuits against public participation applies to this case that was filed before the statute came into effect and, if so, whether the law is unconstitutional.

Ensuring the correct size and fit of Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) is crucial to comply with WHS Regulations. Without a hearing protection fit-testing system, the actual noise attenuation provided by earplugs remains unknown, putting workers at risk of over-exposure or under-exposure to noise and employers at risk of non-compliance. Hearing protection fit testing accurately determines the noise attenuation received by a wearer, ensuring: - Proper Fit: Maximum protection through correct fitting - User Education: Teaching correct usage of hearing protection - Protection Documentation: Evidence of adequate protection, proving compliance - Personalised Protection: Selecting effective hearing protection based on individual ear canal shapes and sizes Learn more in our latest blog post: https://hubs.ly/Q02JQXNB0 #ppe #workplacesafety #uvexsafetyANZ

Legislation requires that employers provide PPE to protect against hearing damage when working in noisy environments. But how can you check your employees' hearing protection? We can assist with hearing protection fit testing. For more information call us 0113919080 or visit: https://lnkd.in/d-mFHtrs 3M #hearingprotection #workplacesafety #ppebestpractise

As an employer, it's critical that you take the necessary steps and follow-up deadlines regarding employees' hearing testing. If an STS, or standard threshold shift, is identified during a hearing test, OSHA requires you to notify your employees of the results within 21 days and ensure they receive re-training. If the STS meets recordability, the OSHA 300 log should be updated within 7 days of the hearing test, and can negatively impact things like the company's risk matrix. By investing in quality hearing protection and mobile hearing testing services, you can save time and money while ensuring your employees' safety and your companies' productivity. Don't wait until it's too late; make hearing safety a priority today. #hearingprotection #healthandsafety #workplacesafety #osha

The #OSHA hearing conservation program is often seen as just a compliance cost. But is that really the whole story? The program, launched by OSHA in the 80s (40 years ago!), was designed to prevent employee hearing loss. Yet...the statistics haven’t improved (probably a decline). In 2018, a study by Johns Hopkins Bloomberg School of Public Health revealed something every employer should know: ? Healthcare costs were 46% higher per person over a 10-year period due to untreated hearing loss. And with 1 in 4 teens now suffering from hearing loss, this issue is only going to get worse as employees enter the workforce with hearing loss. So, is the program truly "just a cost"? Maybe it’s time to see it differently—focusing on the health and future of your people, not just the rules. Think of compliance as a way to protect your team, not just another cost.
