When they sooth, inspire, calm and incite you, they are music, melody, rhythm and rhyme. When they scare, annoy, aggravate you, well, they are noises, terrible noises.<\/div>\n<div class=\"entry-content\">\n<p>According to\u00a0Julian Treasure, Chairman of The Sound Agency, and an expert in how sound affects workers \u201cthe sound around us has a powerful effect on our psycho-physiological state, as well as on our cognitive ability and our social behaviour\u201d. A constant exposure to annoying noises can cause distraction, ineffciency and even anxiety. With an office job, one third of workers have had to leave the office due to excessive noise; choosing to work from home or at a caf\u00e9 or library instead. However, with some occupations, workers do not have the luxury to look for a more pleasant alternative. Constant noise is an inherent part of the job, and workers, by no means, have to learn to cope with it.<\/p>\n<p>A longitudinal study conducted by Occupational Information Network (O*NET), a program\u00a0sponsored by the U.S. Department of Labor, Employment and Training Administration revealed that almost all workers in construction occupations\u00a0are frequently exposed to distressing noise\u00a0at construction sites,\u00a0 which has likely lead to noise-induced hearing\u00a0loss (NIHL); 73% of construction workers were exposed to noise levels exceeding the recommended exposure level\u00a0(REL) regulated by the National Institute for Occupational Safety and\u00a0Health. Of all, ironworkers suffered the highest exposures to noise limit level, with 86% above the NIOSH REL.<\/p>\n<p><strong>*NIOSH:\u00a0<\/strong><em>The National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health is the United States federal agency responsible for conducting research and making recommendations for the prevention of work-related injury and illness.\u00a0<\/em><\/p>\n<p><strong>*REL:<\/strong><em> Recommended Exposure Limit\u00a0<\/em><\/p>\n<p>Also, based on the criteria for a recommended standard for occupational noise exposure (revised criteria of 1998), published by NIOSH in 2016, it is recommended that there is an urgent need for <em>\u201chearing protectors that eliminate troublesome barriers by providing increased comfort to wearers as well as improved speech intelligibility and audibility of warning signals.
