Exposure to extremely high noise levels may cause permanent hearing loss. Individuals vary
considerably in susceptibility to noise-induced hearing loss, but nearly everyone will lose some hearing if
exposed to sufficiently intense noise for a period of time. The U.S. Government’s Occupational Safety
and Health Administration (OSHA) and the Singapore Workplace Safety and Health Council (WSHC)
has specified the permissible noise level exposures shown in the following chart. According to OSHA
and WSHC, any exposure in excess of these permissible limits could result in some hearing loss. To
ensure against potentially dangerous exposure to high sound pressure levels, it is recommended that all
persons exposed to equipment capable of producing high sound pressure levels use hearing protectors
while the equipment is in operation. Earplugs or protectors in the ear canals or over the ears must be
worn when operating the equipment in order to prevent permanent hearing loss if exposure is in excess
of the limits set forth here:
