What’s covered?

The aim of this Risk Assessment - Driving with Hearing Loss is to record the additional hazards faced by occupational drivers if they are losing, or have lost, the hearing in one or both ears.

Undertaking this risk assessment, giving as much detail as possible, will form a paper trail which can be used in audits and investigations, and to evidence that you have complied with your legal duties.
