Abstract:
This work undertook the examination of the perceived barriers that exist to the management of occupational noise exposure in the workplace. Exposure to excessive levels of noise results in cumulative damage to the hearing mechanism of the ear and a subsequent hearing loss. This hearing loss is permanent and does not recover over time. Initially the conventional method of addressing or controlling noise exposure was through Hearing Conservation Programs and more recently through Occupational Noise Management Programs that take more of a risk management approach. However, the numbers of new hea

Noise exposure is a common hazard to workforce in general although at varying degrees depending on the occupation, as many workers are exposed for long periods of time to potentially hazardous noise. Every year, twenty-two million workers are exposed to potentially damaging noise at work. In 2015 U.S. businesses paid over $1.5 million in penalties for not protecting workers from noise. (OSHA, 2016). There may be a direct or indirect consequence of the possibilities of overexposure to noise notwithstanding the compulsory hearing protection requests for the occupations with potential hazards, a

Previous research evaluating restaurant worker exposure used environmental sound levels, but this does not take into account the temporal variability of restaurant worker exposure. To determine the actual personal exposure of restaurant workers, Quest Noise-Pro or Quest Edge dosimeters were placed on restaurant workers at six downtown Iowa City restaurants. At each participating locally-owned restaurant, workers classified as cooks, counter attendants, bartenders, and waiters participated. A time-weighted average (TWA) exposure per participant per shift was computed using both OSHA and NIOSH c

Abstract:
Vehicle drivers are a group of workers that are exposed to noise and whole-body vibration (WBV) several hours a day. Some drivers may also be exposed to high mental loads – monitoring and manipulating physical controls while engaging problem solving activities often with strong short-term memory and spatial manipulation components. Present standards and regulations that govern health risk assessment do not take into consideration the complexities of these multiple exposure environments. The effect of one factor (for example, noise or WBV) may be different than the effect of two factors present

Occupational noise exposure is associated with an increased risk of cardiovascular disease. A biological model explains this association through a general stress reaction and the dysregulation of otherwise normal psychoneuralhormonal pathways.

The sound characteristics of many healthcare settings have been documented to be very poor. There has been extensive research about the adverse effects of noise, especially on patients in acute care settings, but little research has examined long-term residential care workers’ exposure to noise. Excessive noise exposure has been associated with burnout in critical care nurses as well as with health problems, such as adverse cardiovascular effects. However, there is a lack of research evaluating the effects of occupational noise exposure on healthcare providers’ health status and stress levels.
