Noise Monitor

A noise assessment is essential for loud workplaces as it ensures the health and safety of all employees, provides guidance on your compliance with the OHS noise regulations as well as recommendations relevant to achieving full compliance. The assessment also provides you with a noise map for the area detailing where high noise levels occur and where hearing protection zones are required.

It is crucial to maintain acceptable noise levels in an office environment, we have standards in place within Australia to guide us on what is acceptable. Without following them, we can endanger employee health and productivity in both the short and long term. Safe Work Australia recognise that the level of noise in a workplace and the concentration required for the work being conducted, can also contribute to how the health of employees can be affected.

What is a Compliance Audit?

A compliance audit is an overview of how an organisation adheres to the set regulatory guidelines for that region. Legally, you are required to periodically review the approach to OHS / WHS, and penalties may apply if you can’t prove that there has been risk identification and management plans made within the workplace.

Vibration analysis is often ignored in many Australian workplaces. It’s important to note that not only does the shock and vibration noise from a workplace affect your employees, but it can also affect the condition of buildings (and potentially neighbouring buildings too).

Manual handling injuries can be caused by various activities such as lifting, pushing, pulling, and throwing. Every job and every workplace is bound to involve some sort of manual handling, however it is important to identify manual handling risks to prevent potential injury, and train your staff on correct procedures.

Acoustic Report Cost

An acoustic report prepared by JTA’s acoustic consultants can determine whether noise in and around your facility achieves the required levels in order to comply with relevant regulations and standards.

A qualified acoustic consultant will perform acoustic testing of the workplace and facility, obtaining measurement data to then perform analysis and determine if noise levels are too high, and if so, provided detailed recommendations to reduce the noise to compliant levels.

A Workplace Health & Safety (WHS) Management System is essential to any workplace - every workplace has a legislative responsibility to care for the health and safety of all the employees.

To ensure full WHS compliance, JTA can help you implement a WHS system that meets the requirements of your (Australian) state or territory.

Where there is a chemical hazard in the workplace, there should be chemical risk management and safety precautions set in place.

JTA can help you meet your legal and safety responsibilities with chemical hazards in the workplace and provide advice on chemical safety.

Hazardous Chemical Audit

Each hazardous chemical audit involves:

With the removal of any asbestos in the workplace, an asbestos clearance certificate needs to be obtained. Asbestos legislation can vary throughout states & territories in Australia, however, it is now a compulsory requirement to have an inspection for asbestos clearance and to ensure the area is safe to return to for employees
