Audiometric Testing
Protecting Hearing Health in the Workplace
At Hayden Health and Safety, we prioritize the hearing health of your team. Our comprehensive audiometric testing services are designed to help you adhere to industry regulations, including WH&S Regulations Section 58, and keep a close eye on your employees’ hearing health.
Expert Testing with Cutting-Edge Techniques
Our skilled technicians conduct audiometric tests using the latest equipment and methodologies, ensuring precise measurement of hearing abilities. We offer a variety of testing programs tailored to your business needs, including pre-employment, baseline, and regular employee testing.
Compliance and Recommended Testing Frequency
Our services align with industry standards, specifically AS/NZS 1269.4:2014, the NSW Work Health and Safety Regulations 2011, Section 58. The recommended frequency for audiometric testing includes:
– Baseline testing within three months of employment for staff exposed to high noise levels.
– Ongoing testing at least every two years for most employees some industries may require more frequent testing depending on environmental factors.
– Exit testing upon an employee’s departure, to establish a final record of their hearing ability.
For employees in high-noise environments or with a history of hearing issues, more frequent testing may be necessary. Our services can detect potential hearing problems early, enabling proactive measures to prevent further loss.
Comprehensive Reporting and Customized Programs
We provide detailed reports on hearing test results and collaborate with you to develop customized hearing conservation programs tailored to your business’s unique requirements.
