Why you should wear ear protection

It doesn't matter how old you are, if you don't protect your hearing, you could lose it and there's no turning back the clock; once your hearing is gone it's gone. Everyday sounds A safe sound measures at 85dB or below, but you shouldn't listen to any sounds at or above this level for lengthy periods of time. Whilst exposure to this level of sound for a period of time shouldn't cause damage to your hearing, it is still recommended to wear hearing protection in situations where there is potential for a sudden rise in the volume, such as city traffic.

At this level of noise prolonged exposure can cause serious damage to your hearing. Therefore the use of ear plugs or ear defenders is recommended for prolonged exposure. For every three decibels over 85dB, the time you can safely be exposed to the sound is cut in half.
