Hearing Conservation Program
Noised Induced Hearing Loss Can Be Prevented
Noise induced hearing loss is the leading occupational disease in North America. Roughly 15% of workers are exposed to hazardous noise at work and at least 1/3 of them will experience Noise Induced Hearing Loss (NIHL). Fortunately, NIHL can be reduced and even eliminated by implementing a comprehensive, proactive hearing conservation program.
