Publisher's Synopsis
The objectives of this work were to carry out a review of the literature, published since 1985 to establish what is known about the noise levels and noise exposure to workers in pubs and clubs. The information provided by the literature is used to determine whether there is a noise problem, practical measures that can be adopted to control the level of noise exposure, methods adopted by Local Authorities to enforce control, and what needs to be done to ensure employees in pubs and clubs are provided with a safe work environment.
