Noise induced hearing loss is 100% preventable

November 19, 2015

How do you decide what Hearing Protection you will offer to your workers? If you are simply using the NRR found on the box of ear plugs as a guide you may not be providing accurate protection levels for every worker. Ears come in many shapes and sizes and to make sure all workers are getting the protection they need, you need to know their Personal Attenuation Rating (PAR).
