Occupational Noise: Auditory and Non-Auditory Consequences [PDF]
International Journal of Environmental Research and Public Health, 2020 Occupational noise exposure accounts for approximately 16% of all disabling hearing losses, but the true value and societal costs may be grossly underestimated because current regulations only identify hearing impairments in the workplace if exposures result in audiometric threshold shifts within a limited frequency region.
