NOT ONLY IS NOISE PRESENT IN OUR DAILY ROUTINES AND RECREATIONAL ACTIVITIES BUT MILLIONS OF AMERICANS WORK IN HAZARDOUS NOISE ON A DAILY BASIS. ESTIMATES FROM THE NATIONAL INSTITUTES OF HEALTH SUGGEST THAT APPROXIMATELY 15 PERCENT OF AMERICANS (26 MILLION PEOPLE) BETWEEN THE AGES OF 20 AND 69 HAVE HIGH FREQUENCY HEARING LOSS DUE TO EXPOSURE TO NOISE AT WORK OR DURING LEISURE ACTIVITIES. HEARING LOSS DUE TO NOISE IS ALMOST ENTIRELY PREVENTABLE BY JUDICIOUS USE OF HEARING PROTECTION. THE NRR MAY OVERESTIMATE THE HEARING PROTECTION PROVIDED DURING TYPICAL USE. 3M RECOMMENDS REDUCING THE NRR BY 50 FOR ESTIMATING THE AMOUNT OF NOISE REDUCTION PROVIDED.
