Wykonywanie niektórych zawodów czy profesji jest ściśle związane z przebywaniem w hałasie przez kilka godzin dziennie. Budowlańcy, dentyści, muzycy, czy robotnicy drogowi każdego dnia mają styczność ze szkodliwym dla słuchu hałasem.
Dopuszczalne wartości hałasu w miejscu pracy regulowane są prawnie. Dopuszczalna wartość hałasu przy ośmiogodzinnym trybie pracy to 85 dB. Jeśli wartość ta zostanie przekroczona obowiązkiem pracodawcy jest zapewnienie ochronników słuchu pracownikom.

Zalecane jest stosowanie ochronników słuchu, bądź stoperów podczas używania maszyn, czy sprzętów generujących hałas lub stosowanie indywidualnych ochronników słuchu z wykorzystaniem odpowiednich dla danej profesji tłumików akustycznych.
Normy hałasu w miejscu pracy uzależnione są od specyfiki danego zawodu. Przy ośmiogodzinnym trybie pracy hałas nie powinien przekraczać 85dB. Praca w hałasie w granicach 95-100dB nie może trwać dłużej niż 100 minut, a do 110dB nie dłużej niż 10 minut.
