This book contains practical guidelines on the control of noise at work in music and entertainment, including concert halls and theatres, amplified live music venues, pubs/clubs and studios.

It has been drafted and supported by representatives from a wide range of music and entertainment sectors in Britain, as well as Environmental Health Officers and the Health and Safety Executive (HSE).

The aim of Sound advice is to help you to control or reduce exposure to noise at work without stopping people from enjoying music, whether you are an employer, freelancer or employee.

Part 1 of the book explains the requirements of the Noise Regulations, with specific ‘Sound Advice’ sections in Part 2.
