Noise at work protection

The Control of Noise at Work Regulations 2005 were introduced to protect employees from harmful noise levels in the workplace and to make sure employers take responsibility for safeguarding hearing health.

Regular exposure to loud noise at work doesn’t just affect day-to-day comfort; over time, it can cause serious, and sometimes permanent, hearing damage.

At Joseph Hayes, we offer expertly crafted custom hearing protection to help keep your team safe. Our solutions are designed for comfort, durability, and maximum protection, allowing your employees to focus on their work without putting their hearing at risk.

Shooting ear plugs

Shooting exposes your ears to dangerously high noise levels, making the risk of permanent hearing loss and tinnitus very real. That’s why investing in high-quality, custom-made hearing protection isn’t just a good idea, it’s essential.

Our custom shooting ear plugs are specially designed for all-day wear, giving you maximum protection without any irritation or discomfort. Whether you’re out in the field or at the range, you can focus fully on your aim, knowing your hearing is safely protected.
