Noise and Hearing Conservation

Safety measures have been designed to prevent hearing loss from occupational noise exposures, following the requirements set by OSHA’s Hearing Conservation Standard, as well as by following the recommendations of the American Conference of Governmental Industrial Hygienists (ACGIH) and the National Institute of Occupational Safety and Health (NIOSH). See the Noise and Hearing Conservation Program for more information.
