Sound Level
Permanent hearing loss may be caused by exposure to extremely high noise
levels. The U.S. Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) has
specified permissible exposures to certain noise levels. According to OSHA,
exposure to high sound pressure levels (SPL) in excess of these limits may
result in hearing loss. When using equipment capable of generating high
SPL, use hearing protection while such equipment is under operation.
