Interactive Worker Training Tools
Through its partnership with James, Anderson &
Associates, Safe@WorkSM
offers innovative ideas in meeting the demands of communicating noise
exposure data to the workforce. This information is a critical step in
protecting the employee from potentially dangerous noises. Often times
key information is difficult to communicate because of worker mobility
in and out of noisy areas, or from irregular use of loud equipment
commonly associated with skilled trades.
By combining noise exposure data,
instructional media, and interactive software into a
computer interface, workers can access the relevant information
"on-demand" in order to take precautionary steps to protect
their hearing. Due to the variation in technological and informational
resources from one company to the next, the interactive training tools
are typically custom-fit to the user and can be adapted to a variety of
industrial settings. Two examples are shown
below.
