The use of otoplastics in Friesland
In Friesland, there are many occupations that require hearing protection. One of the common occupations in Friesland is shipbuilding and ship repair, especially in places like Harlingen, Sneek and Lemmer.
Using heavy tools and machinery can cause high noise levels, which can damage workers' hearing. Therefore, it is important to wear hearing protection while working.
But the use of hearing protection is also crucial in other sectors, such as construction and industry. Cities such as Leeuwarden and Drachten are home to many companies in these sectors.
Our consultant in Friesland can help you find the best hearing protection for your specific occupation and situation, no matter where you are in Friesland.

Laws and regulations on hearing protection
In the Netherlands, there are laws and regulations surrounding hearing protection to ensure the health and safety of employees. The main legislation in this area is the Occupational Health and Safety Act and the Occupational Health and Safety Decree.
Occupational Health and Safety Act
The Occupational Health and Safety Act requires employers to make hearing protection available to employees exposed to noise levels above the legal standard of 80 decibels averaged over eight hours a day. Employers must also carry out a risk inventory and evaluation (RI&E) to determine which workers need hearing protection.
Health and Safety Order
The Health and Safety Order describes the requirements that hearing protection must meet and how it must be used and maintained. It requires employers to offer customised hearing protection to employees who are regularly exposed to high noise levels and where standard hearing protection is inadequate.
European standards
Besides the Working Conditions Act and the Working Conditions Decree, there are also European standards for hearing protection. The most relevant standard is EN-352, which describes the requirements to be met by hearing protection. Hearing protection that complies with this standard bears a CE mark.
Failure to comply with laws and regulations can lead to fines and other penalties for employers. It is therefore important that employers are aware of applicable laws and regulations and ensure that employees are adequately protected from harmful noise in the workplace. At Ronell, we can help you find the right hearing protection for your employees and educate them on the laws and regulations.
