Workplace hearing tests in NSW: what employers need to know
Ears To You provides mobile industrial hearing screening for workplaces across NSW, with clinicians attending your site to complete scheduled screenings. Metro Sydney pricing is $1,500 + GST per clinician day, covering up to 10 workers, and includes otoscopy where clinically appropriate, pure-tone screening audiometry, worker result explanation, employer summary reporting and referral recommendations.
Good hearing is essential for workplace safety and productivity, especially where employees are regularly exposed to high levels of noise. On-site assessment identifies potential issues early and keeps your team’s hearing health protected, and it lets you act on prevention rather than compensation.
When is workplace noise a problem?
Noise-induced hearing loss is a permanent hearing loss caused by exposure to excessively loud sounds. Excessive noise is considered to be greater than 85dB over 8 hours. Many workers are repeatedly exposed to that level throughout their careers, including people working on construction sites, at airports, in factories, and musicians. Some industries require regular hearing screenings to monitor for any signs of deterioration.
The important part: noise-induced hearing loss can potentially be prevented with appropriate hearing protection. Ears To You provides advice and solutions for preventative measures and appropriate hearing protection alongside the screening itself.
How mobile industrial hearing screening works
Our clinicians attend your workplace and complete scheduled hearing screenings on site, which helps employers meet workplace hearing screening requirements with minimal disruption to the team. Each appointment is allocated sufficient time to ensure the screening is completed properly, with clear reporting and appropriate referral recommendations where required. Where deterioration is identified, or hearing thresholds fall outside the normal range, full diagnostic testing follows.
