Impact of daily noise exposure monitoring on occupational noise exposures in manufacturing workers [PDF]
International Journal of Audiology, 2013 Despite the use of hearing protection devices (HPDs), noise induced hearing loss (NIHL) remains one of the most prevalent occupational conditions. A new technology allows for daily monitoring of noise exposures under HPDs. We report on an intervention employing the voluntary use of this technology in a worksite setting.Volunteers were fitted with a ...

Preschool Personnel Exposure to Occupational Noise [PDF]
Proceedings of the Latvian Academy of Sciences. Section B. Natural, Exact, and Applied Sciences., 2016 Abstract Increased noise, which is also below the occupational exposure values and is “hearing safe” noise, affects the exposed person’s health as a non-specific stressor. Increased noise level also creates an environment for additional vocal apparatus load.
