1 Dosimetry
1: Introduction
Dosimetry
Measuring noise in the workplace is an important
element of hearing conservation programs and
noise reduction programs. With a noise
dosimeter, you can assess and determine a
worker’s daily exposure to noise levels. This
information can be used to ensure compliance
with regulatory bodies or to ensure if hearing
conservation programs are needed.
