A new way of assessment of noise-induced harmful effects on human hearing system is presented in the paper. The method takes into consideration properties of the human hearing system. The pro-posed method determines the cumulative impact on hearing system produced by the excessive noise. Based on the predicted effects of the noise exposure, the new types of noise indicators were developed. The evaluation of these indicators was conducted using various types of noise. The indicators proposed can improve assessment of the harmful effect caused by the noise exposure. A discussion about the type of critical band representations (Bark or ERB scales) used in the analyses was also presented.
