Thursday August 13th, 2026

1:00 PM CST

Noise exposure remains one of the most common and preventable occupational hazards, and effective monitoring is the foundation of any hearing conservation program. This webinar covers the fundamentals of workplace noise monitoring, including when and how to measure noise levels, understanding OSHA action levels and permissible exposure limits, and selecting the right instruments for your monitoring needs. You'll also learn how to use monitoring data to make informed decisions about engineering controls, administrative controls, and hearing protection.

Presented by Dr. Stephanie Lynch, OHD's Regulatory and Standards Director, this session provides a solid grounding in noise monitoring principles for safety managers, industrial hygienists, and anyone responsible for protecting workers from noise-induced hearing loss. Attendees can earn continuing education units (CEUs) through the Deep South Center for Occupational Health and Safety.
