How should measurements be interpreted?
HSE guidance requires representative evidence for occupational noise exposure assessment. Record the measurement method, task duration and uncertainty so a competent assessor can interpret the readings.
Last updated . Facts checked by the SiteSurvey team on 6 October 2026 against HSE controlling noise at work and HSE noise risk assessment.

Fill it in on a phone or tablet
Your team completes the occupational noise monitoring record on site in the SiteSurvey app on iPhone, iPad and Android phones and tablets. The project name and address fill in for them, it works without signal, and it syncs when the device is back online with photos kept against the question they answer.
Customers and subcontractors do not need the app: send them a link and they can fill it in from any browser.
Every question in the occupational noise monitoring record template
An occupational noise measurement record linking instruments, calibration checks, task conditions, timed measurements, uncertainty and assessment references. 5 sections and 31 questions. Follow-up questions and guidance appear only when an answer calls for them, so the person on site never sees the ones that do not apply.
Make it your own: every question is editable
This is a starting point, not a fixed form. Once it is in your SiteSurvey account you can reword any question, add or remove questions, sections and answer options, and add your own logo, so it fits the way your team works and the jobs you do.
Details you only enter once
Add this form to a project in SiteSurvey and it fills in what the project already knows, so nobody on site retypes it and every form on the job uses the same names. Anything filled in can still be changed.

Scope and responsibility
This records workplace noise measurements. It is not an environmental noise complaint report, audiometry record or automatic daily exposure calculation.
What a useful entry looks like
Uncertainty and representativeness limitations
Record factors affecting representativeness and uncertainty. Keep measured values separate from subsequent exposure calculations.
Monitoring covered the recorded production period. Intermittent activity outside that period is identified for assessment in the interpretation report.
Fictional example of record wording. Use the actual evidence and approved arrangements for your job; this is not a completed report or an instruction to carry out the work.

Occupational Noise Monitoring Record FAQs
How should I record “Uncertainty and representativeness limitations”?
Record factors affecting representativeness and uncertainty. Keep measured values separate from subsequent exposure calculations.
How is this different from the noise risk assessment?
This holds measurement evidence; the assessment records exposure comparisons and control decisions.
Does it calculate daily exposure?
No. Link the separate calculation using representative task durations and suitable metrics.
Should worker medical information be included?
No. Use role references and keep health records in the appropriate controlled system.
What are the limits of this template?
This records workplace noise measurements. It is not an environmental noise complaint report, audiometry record or automatic daily exposure calculation.
Can I complete this form on site and share the record?
In the SiteSurvey app the form works offline, with signatures recorded against the questions. Share the completed record as a PDF or a link. Dates and action owners are recorded fields; this form does not send reminders or update other systems.
