Abstract There are unique workplace hazards for employees in the
brewery industry. Many unique pieces of equipment may be used for the
production, conveyance, and distribution of beer. Some of these can potentially
produce elevated noise levels and cause unwanted effects to employees. An
assessment of noisy areas should be performed by a safety professional or
industrial hygienist to minimize this risk and to ensure compliance with
applicable regulations. This article gives some guidelines on how to achieve
and implement those goals and industry best practices.
