The effects range from noise-induced hearing loss and stress to broader health concerns such as cardiovascular disease and disrupted sleep. This white paper outlines impacts, regulatory requirements, and practical strategies -prioritising elimination, substitution, engineering controls, administrative controls, and PPE - so mines can protect workers, uphold community wellbeing, and sustain their licence to operate.
