La pertinence des règlements imposant des examens médicaux de l’audition à certaines catégories de travailleurs ou de postulants à un emploi a été évaluée. Dans le contexte de la poursuite du seul objectif légitime qui est d’assurer la protection d’autrui, il est essentiel d’identifier des outils d’évaluation valides qui peuvent être utilisés pour établir au préalable quand exactement une déficience auditive conduit à des incapacités qui entravent la performance sécuritaire de toutes les exigences d’un travail donné, malgré toutes les adaptations possibles de la tâche et de l’environnement de travail. Les règlements actuels sont très hétérogènes à cet égard et n’assurent pas la mise en place de mesures préventives. Par ailleurs, l’approche réglementaire met l’emphase sur les capacités auditives individuelles et ne prend souvent pas en considération l’état du milieu de travail. Un cadre d’analyse qui met l’accent sur l’interaction entre la personne et l’environnement de travail est discuté.
