German term

Der A-bewertete äquivalente Dauerschalldruckpegel am Arbeitsplatz

German to English Tech/Engineering Science (general)
This is from a section of a document dealing with noise emissions. I believe Dauerschall... is continuous sound pressure level. I know that these levels are measured in decibels, dbA. But what do I do with A-bewertete?
