CPWR (The Center for Construction Research and Training) has recently launched new safety resources for the construction industry. One of the new resources launched is regarding hearing conservation. After conducting trainer and worker surveys, they came to the conclusion that a new training program needed to be developed. The new training program on noise hazards and preventing hearing loss is titled Construction Noise and Hearing Loss Prevention Training Program. To see their new Training Program, click here. The new program has several modules, and in-class and hands-on reflection exercises. The program can be used as your own, or as part of an OSHA training program.
