      TYPES OF HEARING TESTS WE OFFER

      Whether you’re looking for pre-employment hearing tests or ongoing hearing exams for compliance, we can meet the needs of your industry. All auditory acuity screens and pure tone tests are performed by Medical Assistants and reviewed by our certified clinicians.

      Employee Hearing Screening | Mobile Health

      Auditory acuity screen

      An auditory acuity screen determines how well someone can perceive speech by checking their hearing within the common speech frequencies. The testing is conducted by placing a sound probe in someone’s ear with the tester signaling when the sound is just audible. 

      Vision & Hearing Exams

      pure tone test and audiogram

      A pure tone test determines the quietest volume someone can hear at different pitches (aka frequencies). An audiogram is the result of a hearing test, specifically a pure tone test, formatted as a graph. It maps if hearing loss has occurred and if it has, to what degree.

      A CLOSER LOOK AT HEARING EXAMS

      Hearing screenings vs. hearing tests

      The technical term for a hearing screening is audiometric screening. An audiometric screening, also known as audiometer hearing screening, tests someone’s basic ability to hear. It is commonly measured as a pass/fail, meaning someone can hear just fine or they can’t, and determines whether someone should go on to further testing. 

      Instead of audiometric screening, candidates and employees should do audiologic testing. Audiologic testing determines baseline hearing, as well as if and how much hearing loss has occurred, which is an important aspect of OSHA compliance.

      What employers should know about pre-employment hearing exams and osha compliance

      Audiologic testing ensures employees can hear appropriately to perform their job duties accurately and safely, and understand their coworkers and customers.

      In workplaces surpassing OSHA (Occupational Safety and Health Administration) noise levels, a baseline hearing test is required as well as regular assessments. That noise level, often referred to as the OSHA noise level standard, is 85 decibels or higher experienced over a time-weighted average of 8 hours. This is part of the OSHA hearing conservation program which is intended to protect against hearing loss in loud work environments.

      Ongoing hearing tests also check the effectiveness of any hearing protection offered. OSHA hearing protection requirements state that employers must provide free hearing protection to employees when the work environment meets or exceeds the OSHA noise level standard of 85 decibels. Furthermore, hearing protection must be replaced as necessary to mitigate the risk of hearing loss.

      OSHA HEARING CONSERVATION PROGRAM

      The OSHA hearing conservation program requires annual testing and record-keeping. If you need to get compliant quickly, we can help with on-site hearing tests or next-day appointments at any one of our 6,500 clinics.
