An effective hearing conservation program. 1979

D E Spindler, and R D Olson, and W A Fishbeck

In a major chemical producing complex, noise problems of all kinds are encountered. One complex of The Dow Chemical Company, the Michigan Division, has approached this problem by setting up a Hearing Conservation Committee consisting of various disciplines: Safety, Industrial Hygiene, Medical, Engineering, and Production. This committee reviews each plant's Hearing Conservation Program bi-annually until all equivalent exposure ratios are less than one. Audiometric data is entered on a computer for rapid evaluation of periodic audiograms.
