SUMMARY:Construction Noise & Hearing Loss: Links to Mortality and Dementia: CPWR free webinar
DESCRIPTION:Thursday\, November 13th at 1:00 p.m. Eastern (1 hr.) \nConstruction Noise & Hearing Loss: Links to Mortality and Dementia \nHalf of all construction workers experience job-related hearing problems. According to the new edition of CPWR’s Construction Chart Book\, construction workers were 1.7 times more likely to report poor hearing than those not in the industry. \nDespite decades of awareness\, noise-induced hearing loss remains a serious and under-addressed issue. New research from CPWR’s Building Trades National Medical Screening (BTMed) program\, based on health screenings of over 20\,000 construction workers\, reveals a troubling connection: hearing loss is not only widespread in our industry\, but it’s also linked to increased risks of mortality and dementia. \nJoin us for a webinar that explores these findings and describes CPWR’s free training and prevention resources to protect workers from jobsite-related hearing loss. \nModerator:\n• Chris Trahan Cain\, CIH\, Executive Director\, CPWR \nPanelists:\n• Rick Rinehart\, ScD\, Deputy Director\, CPWR and Principal Investigator\, Building Trades Medical Screening Program (BTMed)\n• John Dement\, PhD\, CIH\, Professor Emeritus\, Division of Occupational and Environmental Medicine\, Duke University Medical Center\, and Industrial Hygienist and Epidemiologist\, BTMed\n• Marianne Cloeren\, MD\, MPH\, Associate Professor\, University of Maryland School of Medicine\, and Medical Director\, BTMed\n• Jessica Bunting\, MPH\, Research to Practice Director\, CPWR \nClick here to register and submit questions for our panelists in advance. \n
