Le personnel militaire doit régulièrement faire face à des conditions de bruit nocives, lesquelles ne se manifestent pas souvent dans les autres milieux de travail. Cet article couvre les éléments essentiels d’un programme de prévention de la perte auditive proposé pour les Forces Armées Canadiennes. Le programme a spécialement été conçu pour satisfaire les méthodes de mesure du bruit et d’évaluation du risque, les limites d’exposition, les exigences en matière d’utilisation de protecteurs contre le bruit et les autres mesures contenues dans le règlement canadien sur la santé et la sécurité au travail (Partie VII : Niveaux acoustiques), tout en tenant compte de la spécificité de l’environnement militaire. L’article traite plus particulièrement de la base scientifique du programme de prévention et des aspects qui ne sont pas généralement retrouvés dans les autres milieux de travail (horaires de travail variables, bruits impulsionnels excessifs, exposition sur de longues durées, casques protecteurs avec système de communication intégré, etc.).Fichiers supplémentaires
