Hear J 2020 73 (10) For nearly five decades, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) has | researched noise-induced hearing loss (NIHL) in the workplace and disseminated that | research through the National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health (NIOSH) to | prevent occupational hearing loss.In 2015, CDC received inquiries from the public and the | medical community about NIHL in non-workplace settings. To address these issues, CDC | formed an unfunded intra-agency workgroup within the National Center for Environmental | Health (NCEH). This small workgroup, comprised of audiologists, scientists, and health | educators from NCEH, NIOSH, and the National Center on Birth Defects and Development | Disorders, gathers evidence and creates educational resources to increase awareness and | promote the prevention of NIHL from exposures at home and in the community |
