Occupational noise

A quantitative job-exposure matrix (JEM) for occupational noise including a large set of measurements, a detailed exposure level assessment and spanning over an extensive time period from 1970 to 2020 with 5-year intervals.

The noise JEM has been developed using measurements. The measurements include the originally A-weighted equivalent continuous sound level over 8 hours LAeq (8h) and/or calculated LAeq (8h) levels from partial measurements targeted a regular task usually performed during a full workday.
