Note sull'episodio
Noise-induced hearing loss remains the leading occupational disease in Singapore, but it is also one of the most preventable.
In this episode of Let’s Talk, we speak with two experts — Er. Lim Sui Soon, Honorary Secretary of the Singapore Institution of Safety Officers (SISO) and Member of the WSH Council (Manufacturing) Committee, and Dr Melvin Seng, Occupational Medicine Specialist and Programme Director for the Graduate Diploma in Occupational Medicine at NUS.
Our guests share why hearing loss continues to affect workers across sectors such as manufacturing, marine and construction, and what companies can do to better identify and manage noise risks. From identifying noisy processes and implementing engineering controls to encouraging worker feedback and strengthening hearing conservation programmes, this conversation highlights practical steps organisations can take to protect workers’ hearing and well-being.
