Doing your own noise assessment
I had an interesting conversation with a company owner in the Tottenham area of London. He has had the HSE in and they told him he would be fine with a cheap noise meter off Amazon and to get some measurements with that. In 30 years of noise assessments this is the first time I’ve ever heard of an HSE inspector coming out with this. The absolute opposite is normally the case.
