A noise survey involves measuring noise level at selected locations throughout an entire plant or sections to identify noisy areas. This is usually done with a sound level meter (SLM). A reasonably accurate sketch showing the locations of workers and noisy machines is drawn.
The method for performing an occupational noise survey requires the use of noise dosimeters that are placed on a worker for their work shift to measure the average noise exposure over the period of time that the dosimeter is worn by the worker.
Many companies choose to conduct surveys periodically (once every year or two) to ensure that all exposed employees are included in their hearing conservation programs. When employee noise exposures meet or exceed the TWA Action Level (AL) of 85 dBA: Develop and implement a noise monitoring program.
Certified individuals trained to perform noise risk assessments, recommend hearing protection, and ensure risk reduction. Informal tools like sound level meters can provide initial noise evaluations but are not a substitute for professional assessments.
