Benefits of an Effective Hearing Conservation Program
- Primary benefit is the prevention of noise induced hearing loss (NIHL)
- Detect hearing losses that may be due to causes other than workplace or recreational noise that may have other wise gone untreated
- Temporary hearing loss and tinnitus can also be reduced or eliminated, as well as some noise-related safety hazards
- Less noise and better hearing can lead to greater job satisfaction, productivity and safety
- Reduce accident rates, illnesses and lost time
- Prevention of NIHL reduced the risk of workers compensation payments and may help contain costs associated with workers compensation insurance
- Reducing noise through engineering controls can have a positive effect not only by preventing hearing loss but by reduced absenteeism and increasing productivity
