OSHA recently added a new electronic assistance tool on its website to highlight the prevention of occupational hearing loss. The Noise and Hearing Conservation eTool features information on potential health effects of occupational noise, and provides guidance on evaluating noise exposure, while presenting examples of functional hearing conservation programs. The link also provides references and resources on OSHA's standards and requirements related to the issue. The eTool is a joint product of OSHA's Alliance with the National Hearing Conservation Association (NHCA). |
