Will check on this at work tomorrow, but I’m sure that under UK Health & Safety law 95db is the highest level of sustained ambient noise you are allowed to be exposed for any length of time. Any louder then that and you have a case against your employer. In fact I have to make sure that the headphones I use and supply are fitted with 90db limiters for just that reason.

When your job requires you to have good hearing you make bl**dy sure you look after your ears!
