What is the Hearing Conservation Program?

The Hearing Conservation Program is a comprehensive set of documents and training developed to comply with the OSHA standard for Occupational Noise Exposure. Employees working around loud noise must be enrolled in the George Mason University Hearing Conservation Program. Enrollees are required to participate in annual audiometric testing and training, as well as wear hearing protection devices during tasks where noise levels are excessive.
