Rescue Your Career, Stay Away From Hearing Loss

By Benedict Turner


You can match your mood with a specific type of music. If you are in the middle of a taxing day, the melodies of these songs can help you discharge your tensions and renew your energy. Soft music may be delivered from a piano, a guitar or a saxophone. The gradual tune of these songs induces you to ease for a second and bring out the excess baggage that you have collected. Then again, make sure that you will not go to snooze at the middle of the working day.

On the other hand, you can listen in to rap or rock songs to lift your self-belief to face any obstacle. Rap tunes can bring some self-belief that you can get a job done while rock sounds elevates your energy in order to tackle many duties. But since these forms of songs have decibel values, you can not listen to them raucously. To avoid distracting other people, it would be nice if you will listen by means of headphones.

Listening to rock rhythms on high volume can lead to hearing loss. While you find happiness in playing your favorite rock song to the maximum volume, you will not like the scenario where you can not hear a thing at all. The intensity of music is quantified in decibels and human ears can only hold up up to 120 decibels over time. Any level of noise beyond this limit can damage your sense of hearing over time. In turn, hearing loss can have an adverse result to a worker's performance at work.

A worker who is suffering from hearing loss may find it hard to transcribe what his supervisor told him and this can lead to a mistaken report. Since they respond to phone calls frequently, secretaries might not pick up the words being told over the phone. This can lead to the retrenchment of these workers because they cannot function wonderfully.

It is fine to listen to music to boost your performance at work. For the latter, do not jeopardize your job by listening noisily to screeching guitar riffs and pulsating drum patterns. If you danger your sense of hearing, you will have a difficult time seeking for another work.
