If hearing protection is not convenient, workers won’t use it. Do everything to remove those barriers. For example: For workers who travel, make ear plugs and ear muffs available in the vehicle – but  also provide corded ear plugs, banded hearing protection or multiple-position ear muffs that can be worn around the neck – so they’re handy all the time.
