Today, it is mandatory for employers in many countries to provide adequate hearing protection at noisy workplaces. Noise-limitation levels are governed by law in order to protect workers from permanent hearing loss or other occupational noise-induced hearing disorder. Sordin’s hearing protectors all meet noise attenuation levels set by e.g. the European union and other international regulation.
Traditionally, occupational health and safety improvements have not always gone hand in hand with efforts to increase workplace efficiency. Safety must always come first and any limitations to efficiency due to safety precautions must be accepted and implemented. At Sordin, we believe that health, safety and efficiency are not mutually exclusive. On the contrary, smart use of hearing protectors may boost all three performance criteria.
There is limited awareness of the positive effects of smart, electronic hearing protectors on personal safety and productivity. Many workplaces could benefit a lot from equipping their people with Sordin's electronic hearing protectors, which are packed with useful and easily accessible functions.
Protecting people’s hearing is not the same as promoting workplace safety at large. In fact, historically, it has been quite the opposite. While a conventional hearing protector does indeed shut out harmful noise, it may also reduce situational awareness. The feeling of being “inside a bubble” is a safety risk in itself: you are simply less attentive to hazards if you can’t hear important sounds around you.
Ambient sound support – i.e. the reproduction or amplification of harmless surrounding sound – contributes to improved workplace safety. Sordin products are widely renowned for their natural ambient sound reproduction and directional sensitivity, allowing you to precisely locate the distance and direction to various sound sources.
Safety at noisy workplaces can also be improved by investing in hearing protectors prepared for voice communication. The personal safety level can be improved dramatically when team members can talk to each other, regardless of the distance between them, without removing their hearing protectors.
Our flagship electronic hearing protector Sordin Share takes workplace safety to a new level through its built-in team communication capabilities. This combined hearing protector and communication system allows users to speak to each other hands free using voice control – without the need to press a button or remove their gloves.
