Noise Risk Assessment (NRA)

Overview

Noise can be derived from various work processes and machineries. A noisy work environment can not only harm or impair employees’ hearing, it also contributes to workplace stress.

The Department of Occupational Safety & Health (DOSH), Malaysia through the Occupational Safety & Health (Noise Exposure) Regulation 2019, enforces the requirement for safe noise levels in a workplace. Under the said Regulation, any employer of a workplace shall carry out a Noise Risk Assessment (NRA) to identify if his/her employee is likely to be exposed to excessive noise.

The main objectives of carrying out Noise Risk Assessment are to determine the measurement of area exposed to excessive noise, noise contour, personal noise exposure monitoring and recommend appropriate control measure.
