Quieting Your Construction Site
Abstract:Thousands of construction workers in this country are hearing impaired because of their work, and thousands more are destroying their hearing because of their work in construction. In response to this, the Laborer’s Health and Safety Fund of North America has started the Construction Noise Control Partnership. This partnership is committed to ending the trend of rampant hearing loss for construction workers. It is comprised of the Laborer’ International Union of North America (LIUNA), other trade unions, contractors, public health organizations, government agencies, equipment manufacturers, academics and others.
