Response: Yes. Employers in the construction industry are required to follow the recordkeeping requirements of 1904. Hearing losses of employees that meet the recording criteria set forth in 29 CFR 1904.10 must be recorded. Finally, you have asked OSHA to review your draft examples of how to properly record an occupational hearing loss case. Work-related hearing loss cases must be recorded if they meet the requirements of 1904.10.
