Convenient On-site Audiometry
Everwell Occupational Health offers, a UK wide, on-site audiometry testing or, as it is often called, hearing testing service. As with all Everwell’s other Health Surveillance services, our hearing tests are very convenient, simple to engage and cause minimal disruption with each hearing test only taking 15 – 20 minutes per person.
The hearing test service is designed to be compliant with the statutory Health Screening requirements as laid down by the HSE or more specifically the Noise at Work Regulations (2005) for those employees exposed to noise at work.
The new Noise at Work Regulations (2005) came into force on 6 April 2006 and replaced the previous regulations that had been in force since 1989.These new regulations have tightened the rules and lowered the noise exposure limits.
