Procedures for Movement of Property. All transactions involving property require the submission of a properly filled out and signed Property Control Action Request Form (PCAR) to Property Control prior to any action being taken. A complete PCAR Form is required prior to an interdepartmental transfer or a report of theft of property, etc. The PCAR Form may be obtained from the Property Control Office. Once the form is filled out, it may be faxed (ext. 8368) back to Property Control.
Generally, the louder the noise, the shorter the exposure time before hearing protection is required. For instance, employees may be exposed to a noise level of 90 dB for 8 hours per day (unless they experience a Standard Threshold Shift) before hearing protection is required. On the other hand, if the noise level reaches 115 dB hearing protection is required if the anticipated exposure exceeds 15 minutes.
How to put on a hearing aid. Putting on your hearing aid is easy - it only takes 20 seconds! Place the hearing aid behind the ear, so that the earwire rests comfortably on the ear, close to your head. Insert the ear-tip into the ear canal while holding the lower part of the earwire. Run your finger along the wire to confirm that the hearing aid fits properly.
