The Noise Regs require an employer to have a noise risk assessment in place and a noise assessment forms part of that, indeed it is probably the majority of it.
Fear not, a noise risk assessment is not very complex and is actually basically just a bit of admin, creating one document which references all the various bits of noise safety such as the noise assessment, noise training, hearing testing, PPE, etc., and pulls it all into one document.
IMPORTANT: You do not need to write out all the noise exposure levels again - just refer back to the noise report I did. I have seen people doing this but there is no benefit in it and it just takes time.
The noise risk assessment itself is a simple thing, a couple of pages at most, and is considered to be how a company manages noise safety.
