HEARING IMPAIRMENT CALCULATION WORKSHEET
Claim number Hours since last exposure to noise (must be more than 14)
A.N.S.I. 1969 Monaural Hearing Loss Formula: ([([500 Hz + 1000 Hz + 2000 Hz + 3000 Hz] ÷ 4) - 25] x 1.5) = % of loss LEFT EAR (X) dB level RIGHT EAR (0) dB level
Hz 500 1000 2000 3000 Total
Hz 500 1000 2000 3000
STOP here if total is 100 or less
STOP here if total is 100 or less
Avg threshold for 4 frequencies Less threshold fence of 25 dB
÷ 4=
Avg threshold for ÷ 4 = 4 frequencies Less threshold fence of 25 dB
- 25 =
- 25 =
Multiplied by 1.5 equals the % of x 1.5 = monaural loss Add rating for tinnitus of 0 through 5% Total percent monaural hearing loss
Multiplied by 1.5 equals the % of x 1.5 = monaural loss Add rating for tinnitus of 0 through 5% Total percent monaural hearing loss
STOP HERE IF EITHER OF THE MONAURAL HEARING LOSS %'s ARE ZERO!!!
********************************************************************************************************
Combined Hearing Loss Formula: ([ % better ear x 5 ] + [% worse ear]) ÷ 6 = % of loss
% better ear Plus % worse ear x 5 = + Sub-Total Sub-Total divided by 6 ÷6= % Binaural Hearing Loss
