We’re not allowed to protect our ears because “CONSOOMER FIRST” priority.
If you exposed to loud noises in your work environment (depending on the exposure time and loudness dB level), you should indeed protect your ears. In fact, by law your company should protect their employees from loud noise exposure and use proper hearing protection (so not the cheap stuff either).
If they don’t meet these standards, you have the right to report the issue to workplace safety authorities or your company’s health and safety officer. Employers are legally required to conduct noise assessments and provide adequate hearing protection, such as high-quality earmuffs or earplugs rated for the specific decibel levels in your work environment.
Trust me, if you are indeed exposed to loud noises can lead to irreversible hearing damage. I don’t care so much about hearing loss, but Tinnitus on the other hand is killing my live. My Tinnitus has had me in its grip for years now. I can’t commute to work anymore, I can’t just go and do fun things anymore, hack I can’t even join a birthday party when there are too many people. It is really suffering. And there is NO cure. #Tinnitus
