James, Anderson & Associates, Inc.
JAA was a
leading worldwide provider of noise control, sound exposure monitoring, and hearing loss
prevention services for industry. Offices were located in Lansing and Detroit, Michigan, and El Paso, Texas enabling JAA to provide industrial clients with technical,
consulting, and management services to aid in management of exposure to hazardous noise.
|
|
JAA published a newsletter on
hearing conservation and noise related issues periodically. |
|
|
Hearing conservation as it has been practiced in industry has not
effectively prevented hearing loss in workers. Hearing Loss Prevention, or
HLP, is a term
coined by NIOSH to clearly indicate that the old ways have not worked, and new ideas are
necessary to prevent hearing loss. |
|
|
Communication is the key to
effective hearing loss prevention. JAA
developed HeLP Guide's to foster effective communication of
risk of hazardous noise exposure to workers. |
