# Real-time Sound Meter - **Website:** - **Primary alias:** `realtimesoundmeter.org` ## Description The National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health (NIOSH) is dedicated to promoting safe and healthy working conditions by researching and providing information on noise exposure and prevention methods to combat Noise-Induced Hearing Loss (NIHL). NIOSH establishes essential guidelines, including a recommended exposure limit (REL) of 85 decibels, to protect workers across all industries, particularly those in high-risk sectors like mining, manufacturing, and construction. NIOSH offers various resources and tools, such as the NIOSH Sound Level Meter app, which enables users to measure noise levels accurately. The organization emphasizes the importance of preventive measures, educating employers, health and safety professionals, and workers about the risks and strategies to minimize noise exposure. Through detailed guides and innovative programs, NIOSH helps create a safer workplace environment by highlighting the hierarchy of controls, ranging from eliminating noise sources to providing personal protective equipment. With a commitment to safeguarding hearing health, NIOSH strives to reduce the incidence of hearing loss due to occupational noise exposure. ## Industries - ⛑ Health - ⛑ Public Health and Safety _(under Health)_ - 🖥 Computers Electronics and Technology ## Logos & icons - logo _(primary)_ — PNG, SVG — [download](https://cdn.brandfetch.io/idQxN-333m/w/820/h/246/theme/dark/logo.png?c=1bxid64Mup7aczewSAYMX&t=1787157074533) ## Colors | Name | Hex | Theme | | --- | --- | --- | | Mountain Meadow | #10b981 | accent | | Jacksons Purple | #1e3a8a | dark | | Dolly | #fef08a | light | ## Fonts - var(--font-sans) — asset _(custom)_ - var(--font-sans) — asset _(custom)_ --- _Source: _ _See [/llms.txt](/llms.txt) for a full list of agent-readable pages, and [/auth.md](/auth.md) for how agents authenticate._
