The Bacou-Dalloz Hearing Safety Group’s website has recently been expanded to provide a wide range of resources to help safety officers and industrial hygienists implement better hearing conservation programs worldwide. In the Hearing Conservation section at www.hearingportal.com, users can find information on global hearing conservation regulations, as well as posters, presentations, literature and other tools to help design, set up and conduct people-oriented hearing conservation programs.
“Despite many years of regulation, the incidence of noise-induced hearing loss continues to rise,” said Renee Bessette, COHC, senior marketing/communications specialist for the company. “We believe that successful hearing conservation programs require an active outreach to employees – the people who actually wear hearing protection devices and suffer the consequences if they don’t – and our intent with hearingportal.com is to provide managers with a one-stop, evolving resource to improve their hearing conservation efforts.”
