October is National Protect Your Hearing Month

October 3, 2024

October is National Protect Your Hearing Month, and OSHA is here to provide industry workers everywhere with the resources they need to protect their hearing on the job. Whether it's wearing ear protection while making those trim cuts or while running the board at your touring rock concert, everyone should do what they can to preserve their hearing health! Check out the resources below to learn more.

Check out this poster that lays out the “Top 5 Things You Need to Know” about protecting your hearing and preserving your health!

OSHA has created a helpful power point, designed to be presented by Technical Directors and Shop Foreman so your carpetry team can learn more about the importance of protecting their hearing. You can find the presentation here!

OSHA's Toolbox Talk page is designed to be read while your working onsite, so you can properly equip and prepare yourself at work. This is a great resource to provide to your team, so they can check back on it while they're on the job.

Be sure to check out OSHA's Media Center frequently for articles and updates that can educate you and anyone you work with! 

OSHA will be hosting a Live Webinar titled Lunch and Learn for Hearing Conservation on Wednesday, October 9, 2024.

Finally, be sure to check out OSHA's social media pages! They've rolled out several posts over the last week to prepare for Protect Your Hearing Month. Check out their LinkedIn page for posts on National Protect Your Hearing Month, and Protecting Your Hearing.
