nomics You were just hired as a new employee in the human resources department at WTX, Inc.'s main campus, which matches Google in scope and services offered to its employees. One concern at the HR department is with the effect of noise on employees. A new report from NIOSH (the research agency focused on the study of worker safety and health by established by OSHA) was received. The report states that 22 million workers are exposed to potentially damaging noise at work each year at a cost of more than $1.5 million in penalties for business in failing to protect workers from noise and an estimated $242 million is spent annually on workers' compensation for hearing loss disability. NIOSH's research has found that hearing loss is a growing problem and it recommend that a safe level is 85 decibels of exposure. Your first project in your new job is to identify potential noise risks WTX and its employees may have. As you walk around WTX's campus you begin to notice the varied types of jobs employees have at WTX. Each of these jobs cause noise to originate in different ways, such as employees working in the cafe, the machine shop, the copy room, and even the lawn staff while you were walking to your car in the afternoon. Your job is to identify different decibel level exposures for different employees and inform your boss in the HR department whether you believe any additional safety or health measures should be taken by WTX. d. Report the decibel level for each location as well as employee relationship to noise sources including how close the employee is to the source. e. Discuss if you think the decibel level is high enough to be a concern or endanger the employee. Consider whether any action should be taken even if the decibel level is under 85 decibels of exposure. f. Make recommendations to WTX, Inc. and discuss what needs to be done to ensure OSHA compliance or any other action which would benefit employees
