        HEARING PROTECTION

        The Wave Band™ from Moldex-Metric Inc. is designed for situations that require users to remove and replace their hearing protection frequently. Worn under the chin, its sleek design allows the band to float away from the wearer's body and clothing, creating freedom of movement and negating noise transmission.

                Attenuation Study

                A recent field attenuation study by Howard Leight's Acoustical Laboratory found that one-on-one training is the most significant factor in predicting good ear plug performance. Of the more than 100 workers tested, one-third achieved attenuations higher than the published NRR for their ear plugs.

                    Poll

                    OSHA Region 6 Administrator John Hermanson says the agency assessed the maximum statutory fines, a total of $21,500 for four alleged serious violations, against a small Oklahoma grain company in connection with amputation injuries suffered by two teenage workers. Does this case demonstrate the need to increase the amounts OSHA can issue in penalties?
