- Description
- Noise-induced hearing loss (NIHL) negatively
affects the quality of life of mine employees and costs mining
companies large amounts in compensation claims. The prevention of
NIHL requires early identification and recent evidence about the
ability of otoacoustic emissions to identify inner ear damage
before the conventional tests are able to, requires an
investigation of the feasibility of using this method of testing on
a large workforce in an annual medical surveillance
settings
