Home » OSHA kicks off ‘Hear and Now - Noise Safety Challenge’
The Department of Labor (DOL) is challenging inventors and entrepreneurs to develop a solution that would reduce workplace noise exposure and combat related hearing loss by launching the “Hear and Now - Noise Safety Challenge.”
According to the DOL, every year 22 million workers risk losing their hearing from workplace noise hazards. Hearing loss disability costs businesses an estimated $242 million annually in workers’ compensation.
