When is hearing protection mandatory?
Hearing protection is required when noise exposure exceeds 85 dB(A).
How do ear defenders work?
Passive ear defenders help reduce the noise by mechanically blocking the sound waves. They are ideal for situations with continuous noise levels and when communication is not critical. Electronic ear defenders use smart technology to help workers hear their environment and/or communicate with others in noise. These solutions are ideal in intermittent noise and/or when communication is critical.
What ear defenders do I need?
Use the Hearing Protection Advisor to help you select the ear defenders that fit your needs.

Hearing Protection Advisor
How many decibels do ear defenders block?
This is dependent on the type of ear defender you are using. Therefore fit testing is key.
Learn more about Hearing Fit Testing.
When should I replace my ear defenders
3M recommends you replace your ear defenders every 3 years or whenever they are damaged or start to lose headband tension, and there is a risk of attenuation loss. Note: Users of 3M products should be familiar with User Instructions before use.
