HEARING PROTECTION

NOISE-INDUCED
HEARING LOSS (NIHL)
Noise induced hearing loss, as its name suggests, is
the result of damage from excessive exposure to
harsh noise and sounds.

It is the damage to or even death of


ear hair cells that lead to hearing loss. When
high-intensity sound enters the ear canal, it
can cause trauma to the hair cells and other
parts of the ear. Ultimately, this trauma dam-
ages how we hear, affecting how we perceive
sound moving forward. NIHL can be immedi-
ate or it can take a long time to be noticeable.
It can be temporary or permanent, and it can
affect one ear or both ears. Regardless of
how it might affect you, one thing is certain:
noise-induced hearing loss is something you
can prevent.

HOW TO PROTECT YOURSELF


To choose the correct product for hearing protection.

Identify the nature of the noisestable,


fluctuating, intermittent, pulse.

Measure the noise at the working


stationintensity (dB) and volume (Hz).

Determine the exposure time.

Calculate the reduction necessary to


return to an acceptable ambient level
(cf Directive 2003/10/CE).
