How to improve the safety of your employees exposed to noise?

Noise hazards in industrial settings are unfortunately very common. Employees often have to deal with high noise levels, which can lead to long-term health problems such as hearing loss. This is the case at our customer U Logistic, where a large machine is used to recycle the waste generated by the U stores. This machine emits more than 90 decibels of noise, which is a significant noise risk for the workers who operate it. 

Before using Louis, our communicating solution, the 3 employees at U Logistic had to wear helmets to protect themselves from the noise, but they had to remove them to communicate, and thus expose themselves to the noise. Thanks to Louis, they can now communicate without being side by side with the machine, which allows them to work around it without suffering from noise pollution. 

Moreover, it's often necessary to unlock the machine, but the person who unlocks it has no visibility on its action and absolutely needs the confirmation of one of his colleagues that "it's ok, it's unlocked". Thanks to Louis, this communication is fast, efficient and safe for everyone.

Also, a co-worker is often on the fenwick to move the recycled waste blocks. However, there is often a risk of collision with pedestrians working nearby. With Louis, workers are always in contact and can avoid potential hazards, which reduces the risk of accidents and improves safety in the workplace.

In conclusion, at U Logistic, the use of Louis has not only reduced the noise risk for employees around the polystyrene machine, but also significantly reduced the risk of pedestrian/machine accidents. 

If you too are looking to protect your employees from noise hazards in your industrial facilities, and to improve communication between them, our Louis communicating solution may be just what you need.
