The National Hearing Conservation Association seeks nominations for its 2012 Media Award. Established in 1993, the award recognizes the efforts of writers & producers of news features that serve to heighten public awareness of the hazards of noise.
The National Hearing Conservation Association (NHCA) has issued a set of guidelines to assist audiologists and other professional reviewers to determine the recordability of occupational hearing loss.
The NHCA sent a letter to the United States Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) advocating the regulatory body to revisit the interpretation and application of noise controls in industrial workplaces.
