Follow along as Steve, Jerry and a group of co-workers receive their annual training on hearing conservation. Jerry and
the others understand and follow their training, while Steve does not. Steve doesn’t take the issue of hearing loss
seriously and continually disregards the need for hearing protection at home and at work. As time passes, Steve develops
the symptoms of hearing loss due to his poor choices regarding hearing protection. Steve’s annual audiogram reveals
hearing loss and in the end, Steve becomes convinced of the importance of protecting his hearing from further damage.
Watching the example of Steve’s poor attitude and subsequent hearing loss will convince your employees to protect their
hearing at home and at work.
Viewers will also learn important information about the hearing conservation program. Topics include how noise can
damage hearing, using and fitting earplugs, canal caps and earmuffs, the medical surveillance program, importance of
protecting against off-job noise, signs and symptoms of hearing loss and preventing further hearing loss once damage has
occurred.
