Audio Metric Testing
Audiometric testing is recommended for all individuals who are exposed to noise on a daily basis, as part of the company's duty of care under the Control of Noise at Work regulations 2005. Hearing tests form a large part of Health Surveillance.
Milne will provide one to one hearing tests conducted by our qualified hearing specialist in our bespoke Audiometric Van which comprises of an HSE approved audio sound booth.
Using state of the art testing machines alongside the foolproof Bekesy method for testing, we guarantee accurate hearing tests.
Upon completion of the hearing test, appropriate records and recommendations will be provided for the company and for the individual.
- Milne Safety carry out the testing in our mobile unit which has an integrated sound booth
- The ambient noise outside the booth must meet strict guidelines set out by the Health and Safety Executive and the booth manufacturers
- To meet the necessary requirements, our mobile audiometry unit has been attenuated to ensure the necessary sound levels can be met
- A sound level meter is used to check that the ambient noise in the vehicle is meeting the required noise level. Should the sound levels be exceeded the audiometric test will cease, until the temporary noise has been reduced
- Prior to carrying out a hearing test, the delegates will complete an audiometric questionnaire, this being satisfactory, their ears will be examined via the use of an otoscope to ensure that the test can be completed
We can visit your premises and carry out on site Audio metric tests for staff of concern. Please contact us for more details.
