%X Aim: Protection and improvement of hearing health is one of the priorities of Audiology Science. It has been decided to inform the employees who are exposed to noise due to their occupations with the aim of raising awareness about hearing health by Audiology Department¡¯s faculty members and students. Method: A scale was created by using the questions including the areas of risk in terms of hearing health, protection of hearing health and assessment of knowledge about the subject. The scale was tested in a group of students and the necessary arrangements were made according to the feedback received. The students were visited during the course hours, employees were visited at the workplaces and the responses were collected. All data were evaluated by entering SPSS program. Findings: It is seen that the level of awareness and theoretical knowledge about the situations to be avoided for the protection of hearing health is sufficients for the participants.
