We created this site NoiseHoodsEu because we want to help in the fight against detrimental effects of noise on people¢s health.

Nowadays noise is pervasive and makes life unpleasant for people in many places. One of the most noticeable kinds of excessive noise affecting human body is noise at work.
According to the press release of EU OSHA of April 20, 2005 it is estimated that a third of European employees are exposed to a high noisiness for more than a quarter of their working time. World Health Organization recognized the hearing loss caused by noise to be „the most widespread occupational disease with irreversible consequences“. The recent survey (Work and Health in EU - Statistical picture of European Commission 2004) also indicates that approximately seven per cent of all European employees in industry suffer from hearing disorders, for example deafness, tinnitus (ringing, piping, buzzing or humming in ears) or other hearing defects. Annual compensating costs for employees in the whole Europe amount to as much as 35 million EUR (according to The Hearing Academy, the Netherlands).
Hearing defects caused by noise are irreversible, but can be prevented.

One of the possibilities of preventing health impairment due to excessive noise is utilization of noise hoods.
