WEBINAR ON-DEMAND

Protect Your Workers' Hearing

Originally presented on May 6, 2024

Protecting workers' hearing in loud environments is a major challenge—and incurred damage can mean operational disruptions, fines, and potentially permanent hearing injury. Fortunately, there are technologies and protocols available to ensure your team members are protected. Managers now have hearing guidelines for:
  • Individual fit testing
  • Determining personal attenuation
  • Selecting the best high-tech hearing protector
  • The types of fit testing methods available
  • And more

In addition, more and more is being realized about the dangers of ototoxic chemicals—which can have a drastic effect on hearing loss. Ototoxic chemicals, like lead, solvents, and kerosene-based fuels, are a newer designation of substances that damage the hearing organs with or without associated noise exposures. On top of hearing threshold shifts, ototoxic chemicals can afflict victims with balance and speech clarity problems. 

Attend this webinar and learn about:

  • The latest National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health (NIOSH) rulings for individual fit protection
  • Recent developments in worker hearing protection requirements
  • How to safeguard employees from harmful chemicals and noises
  • Preventing hearing loss on your team
  • And more!
