Quick, accurate audiometric testing that takes care of your employee’s health and your businesses legal requirements.
Audiometry testing is a legislative requirement for any working environment where employees have exposure to noise levels that require hearing protection equipment and is an important part of your health surveillance program.
KINNECT’s program – which includes baseline and periodic audiometry testing – ensure that you are meeting your legislative requirements. The program will also identify employees who may have occupational noise-induced hearing loss to ensure early intervention and treatment is provided.

Legislative Requirements
If employees are required to use hearing protection to protect against noise exposure, then you have obligations under WHS regulations to:
- Ensure that a worker is not exposed to noise that exceeds the exposure standard for noise;
- Provide audiometric testing to monitor employee hearing levels.
