In this session, you’ll learn:
- What is sound? A breakdown of how sound travels and how we perceive it.
- What is a decibel? Understanding decibel levels, how they’re measured, and what they mean for your ears.
- Noise exposure and legal limits: Discover the laws around sound exposure for workers, and why even music lovers should be mindful of volume.
- The link between loud environments and tinnitus: Learn how sound levels can trigger or worsen tinnitus, and how long-term exposure impacts hearing.
- How to protect your ears: Explore the types of hearing protection available, how they work, and how to choose the right solution for your lifestyle and needs.
