So going about writing rough drafts of all the documents required for WISHA. The thing that's got me stumped is WAC296-817, Hearing Loss Prevention. This chapter has me scratching my head about a couple things.
I've only worked in one shop that actually had something like this(the rest played the dumb card). As an employee all I had to do was walk into the blacked out, free candy van for a few minutes.
How often do actually have to test and calculate noise exposure? This seems partly left to your own judgement, rather than actual requirements.
So you don't need an expensive dosimeter, and can use a SLM if you have "constant noise levels." Does any one have a good tutorial on this one? Or do I just have to bite the bullet and rent a dosimeter?
What sort of price range is there for mobile audiogram services, has anyone dealt with this?
