Audiometric Testing
Audiometric testing monitors an employee’s hearing over time. During the audiogram, the employee will wear a set of headphones and respond to tones administered at different frequencies in each ear.
This type of testing identifies the employee’s hearing levels and helps to identify deterioration in the employees’ hearing ability as soon as possible. This enables employers to initiate protective follow-up measures before hearing loss progresses.
We are here to help:
- Employers must make audiometric testing available to all employees who are exposed to an action level of 85 decibels (dB) or above, averaged over 8 working hours, or an 8-hr time weighted average (TWA). They must also maintain a Hearing Conservation Program to include monitoring, testing, follow-up, training and recordkeeping per OSHA requirement 29 CFR 1910.95
- Audiograms are required annually for all employees whose exposure to noise is at or above the action level.
- Baseline audiograms are required for all new employees within 1 year of an employee’s first exposure at or above the action level.

What are the OSHA Regulations?
OSHA 29 CFR 1910.95 - “Standard on Occupational Noise Exposure”
- The employer shall establish and maintain an audiometric testing program by making audiometric testing available to all employees whose exposures equal or exceed an 8-hour time-weighted average of 85 decibels.
- The program shall be provided at no cost to employees.
- Audiometric tests shall be performed by a licensed or certified audiologist, otolaryngologist, or other physician, or by a technician who is certified by the Council of Accreditation in Occupational Hearing Conservation (CAOHC), or by a technician who has been properly trained on the use of the microprocessor.
- Each employee's annual audiogram shall be compared to their baseline audiogram to determine if the audiogram is valid and if a standard threshold shift (STS) has occurred. (This comparison can be done by a CNS OccMed technician).
- If the annual audiogram shows that an employee has suffered an STS, the employer may obtain a retest within 30 days and consider the results of the retest as the annual audiogram (This is service offered by CNS OccMed).

The employees will receive immediate electronic evaluations of their hearing.
Reports are available at the end of the test day for the employer.
All testing will be performed by CAOHC trained technicians. The program is overseen by an Audiologist and can provide audiological reviews and complete your work-relatedness determinations.
MOBILE FRIENDLY
