Washington — Nominations for NIOSH’s 2023 Safe-in-Sound Excellence in Hearing Loss Prevention Award are due June 8.
The award acknowledges organizations that “document measurable achievements in hearing loss prevention and to obtain and disseminate information on their real-world successes.”
Also eligible are “individuals, organizations and/or business entities from any industrial sector dedicated to fostering, creating and implementing new and unique evidence-based advances in hearing loss prevention and creating solutions to real workplace challenges.”
To submit a nomination, e mail [email protected] and clarify how this system represents excellence in listening to loss prevention. Also, establish the nominee and embody their contact data, together with a short description of the noise management or different listening to loss prevention interventions that counsel excellence or innovation. Include a brief description that highlights proof of an intervention’s effectiveness, if doable.
Self-nominations may also be submitted, and are due Aug. 18.
The National Hearing Conservation Association joined NIOSH in 2009 to create the award. The Safe-In-Sound program added the Council for Accreditation in Occupational Hearing Conservation as a associate in 2018.
