Employees Health provides onsite audiometric testing for Australian workplaces where workers may be exposed to hazardous occupational noise.
Workplace hearing assessments can assist employers in monitoring hearing health, identifying potential changes over time and supporting workplace health surveillance programs where required.
Onsite testing helps minimise operational disruption by allowing employees to complete assessments at their workplace rather than travelling to external clinics.
Audiometric testing may be relevant for industries such as construction, manufacturing, mining, transport, infrastructure, utilities, aviation, warehousing and other environments where workers are regularly exposed to elevated noise levels.
Employers may need to arrange audiometric testing for workers who are frequently required to use hearing protection due to workplace noise exposure.
Testing frequency depends on applicable WHS requirements, workplace noise exposure levels, risk controls and organisational health surveillance programs. Employers should consider relevant legislation, exposure risks and professional advice when determining testing requirements.
Employees Health Audiometric program includes baseline and periodic audiometry testing to ensure your organisation is meeting legislative requirements. Our audiologist will identify employees who may have occupational noise-induced hearing loss to ensure early intervention.
