Bothering people about noise at work for over 30 years now, it’s tragic really. Has far too many dogs (11), Honda NT1100 rider, F1 nut, and spends most of his time decomposing slowly towards the grave.
A noise assessment often results in a need for hearing protection and sometimes employers limit how many pairs of foam ear plugs people can use in a day, but there are issues with this: www.thenoisechap.com/noise-safety...
Not being 12 years old I have no interest in what constitutes a 'comeback'.
Be careful waving the Fascist flag. By many policies the Fascists of 30s Germany were very socialist - controlled industry, rent controls, very left wing economic policies. Economically it was a left wing party, basically Greens but with a better dress code and a more developed dislike of foreigners
That is an entirely erroneous interpretation. The basis that one party is not as bad as the other lot is a very poor reason to vote for them. The main thing I know about the Greens from their messaging is that I should vote for them as they are not Reform. Tells me nothing about them.
I have no political affiliation at all and no dog in the race, but all I keep seeing from Zach & Co is 'look at Reform, they're terrible and Labour can't beat them. Vote for us to stop Reform'. A horribly negative approach.
Quick, vote for us as the other ones are worse.
Not the most positive reason for voting. Policians never learn. Hilary Clinton went on and on about how bad Trump would be, and she lost. Remain went on and on about how bad Leave would be, and they lost. Give us positive reasons, not selling fear.
After a noise assessment, employers have a responsibility to ensure hearing protection remains clean and functioning as it should be: www.thenoisechap.com/noise-safety...

In this instance, as Mr Danton is the emperor, can I politely ask that the mag remains with him fully clothed?
Anyone driving for work has the potential to receive quite a significant noise exposure, whether it is a car, van, HGV or motorbike, but dealing with it is not simple. www.thenoisechap.com/noise-safety...
That means some deviant ate the Bounties, you have a right wrong ’un among you. Banish them.
I keep trying to move to Pages and Numbers, I had another go at it last week, and ditch Office, but keep coming up against problems. This time it was poor formatting options for a table of contents and inability to have portrait and landscape pages in the same document. Fix that Apple and I'm in.

A common issue in a noise assessment is people using non-safety noise cancelling music headphones or ear buds in a high noise area. Even though they are noise-cancelling this is still not allowed. www.thenoisechap.com/noise-safety...

Not all noise assessments cost the employer money. In two noise assessments this week the results confirmed an absence of risk so no need for things like hearing testing or hearing protection. A win for the employer and the staff. www.thenoisechap.com
