Noise Induced Hearing Loss Prevention for Mining Operations

Noise induced hearing loss is among the most compensated occupational diseases in African mining, yet it is entirely preventable. This programme helps mine teams map noise exposure, apply the hierarchy of controls and run a hearing conservation programme that actually reduces harm. Delegates connect audiometry results to exposure data and control decisions.
