Occupational noise testing is essential for protecting worker health and for early identification of harmful noise exposure. Excessive noise in the workplace can cause hearing loss, fatigue, reduced performance, and increased stress levels. Therefore, professional and accurate monitoring is required in accordance with regulations aimed at preventing harm from unreasonable noise.

Ecological Laboratories A.P. Ltd. performs advanced occupational noise testing in workplace environments using certified inspectors, calibrated equipment, and full compliance with Ministry of Labor requirements and relevant standards. The company is accredited to ISO 17025 and is formally recognized for performing these tests.

Sampling and Testing Process

  1. Preliminary Planning:
    • Review of the work environment
    • Identification of potential noise sources

  2. Performing the Measurements:
    • Use of approved and calibrated sound level meters
    • Short- and long-term measurements (long-term logging)
    • Monitoring during regular work activity to obtain realistic exposure data
    • Full compliance with Ministry of Labor guidelines
  3. Analysis of Results:
    • Calculation of maximum and average exposure levels
    • Identification of noise patterns and critical exposure hours
    • Comparison against permitted threshold values
    • Comprehensive risk assessment regarding hearing and overall health
  4. Final Comprehensive Report:
    • Summary of measurement findings
    • Professional graphs and data analysis
    • Identification of major noise sources
    • Practical recommendations for reducing exposure
