Noise is an enemy that attacks in professional and non -professional life. His victims are countable. The World Health Organization (WHO) predicts that by 2050, over 2.5 billion people may have a specific degree of hearing loss, and about 700 million people will require hearing rehabilitation. In Poland in 2023, according to the data of the Central Statistical Office, 174.4 thousand people worked in conditions of noise risk (it accounted for 51.3% of all factors related to the work environment employed under the conditions of danger).   Excessive exposure to noise has not only health effects in the form of hearing cavities.; They can also manifest themselves as: stress, hypertension, sleep disorders and nervous system problems.   Social information campaign "I listen and hear" („Słucham i słyszę”) is to encourage employers to take action to protect employees, i.e. to fight noise.
