Industrial Hearing Tests
In accordance with Occupational Health & Safety regulations, companies operating in high-risk industries for hearing loss are required to have all employees’ hearing tested when they begin employment and at regular intervals throughout their employment.
How It Works
- DLS’s hearing test unit is completely mobile providing minimal disruption to your workforce
- Testing is available seven days a week, 24 hours a day to accommodate a variety of shifts within your workforce
- Both baseline and follow-up tests are conducted by Certified Audiometric Technicians
- Testing is conducted, analyzed and stored securely using state-of-the-art equipment and data management software
- Employees are provided immediate interpretation of test results as well as one-on-one counseling on the personal steps required to help prevent noise-induced hearing loss
- Any abnormal results are referred to, and interpreted by, a registered Audiologist
- Each employer is provided a comprehensive summary report after testing is complete
In order to understand if an employee’s hearing is being impaired from work-related noise, DLS recommends employees are tested soon after starting employment, followed by annual follow-up testing.
