Visual Alert Signals for the workplace. Visual alarms and signals with flashing or strobe lights alert an employee who is deaf or hard of hearing about important sounds in the workplace such as door buzzers, emergency alarms and ringing telephones. TTYs are devices that enable deaf or hard of hearing people to communicate with others over the telephone. Deaf or hard of hearing employees can use TTYs to call anyone by using the cost-free Maryland Relay. Stand-alone TTYs are being replaced by newer technologies, like this desktop computer-based TTY software or through the use of IP-Relay, which allows the caller to make relay calls directly through the Internet. Computer-Assisted Real Time (CART) Captioning CART is the instant translation of the spoken word into English text by a court reporter using a stenotype machine, notebook computer and realtime software. The text appears on a computer monitor for individual users or on a screen for an audience. Accommodations for Workers Who Are Hard of Hearing ->
