- Meeting workplace safety needs
- Setting a hearing level baseline
- Identifying existing hearing issues
Please allow about 60 minutes for our audiologist to carry out a thorough and detailed hearing test for your hearing health.

Reasons to Undergo Employee Hearing Tests
Legal Compliance
Many commercial sectors are legally required under Australian law to have current or potential employees undergo workplace audiometric testing, particular for jobs conducted in workplaces with high noise volumes. Organising testing allows employers to comply with legal requirements and protect themselves from potential legal issues.
Workplace Accident Prevention
Employees must be able to hear and comprehend any instructions they’re given and alarms that may go off during emergencies. Having potential employees undergo pre-employment hearing tests or getting current employees to undertake workplace audiometric testing will determine if there’s a hearing impairment that could cause a workplace accident.
Job Suitability
There are certain lines of work where it’s imperative that employees have a suitable hearing range, such as the aviation sector. Pre-employment hearing tests are an effective way to verify if an applicant’s hearing capabilities are within the acceptable range for them to carry out the type of work they’re being employed to do.
