FAQs About Industrial Hearing Screenings

Aside from being a requirement set by the MOM, industrial hearing screenings play a crucial role in preventing occupational injuries, improving the overall work environment and avoiding potential legal issues for the company.

With regular screening, early signs of Noise-Induced Hearing Loss (NIHL) can be detected and appropriate measures can be taken to prevent or slow the progression of this condition. NIHL is irreversible and considered an occupational hazard.

When the employees' hearing health is affected, they may struggle to communicate effectively at work and/or need to take time off work to seek treatment, which can negatively impact the company's productivity and increase costs.

Furthermore, failing to provide adequate hearing screenings can have legal implications for the company. Employees who develop hearing loss due to the company's negligence and poor safety regulations may take legal action against the company, which can result in costly legal battles and damage the company's reputation.

Thus, it's important to send employees for an annual industrial hearing screening to protect employees' well-being and mitigate potential risks.

The cost will depend on various factors. Please send us an enquiry for an accurate quotation.

Employees are only required to bring their identification card (e.g. NRIC, work permit, staff pass) for the screening. They do not need to bring any medical records.

For our industrial hearing screening, employees will take a Pure-tone Audiometry (PTA) test involving air conduction (AC) testing. If necessary, a bone conduction (BC) test will be conducted as well. Speak to our hearing care professionals to find out more.

According to the medical monitoring requirements set by the MOM, employees who are exposed to high levels of noise in the workplace must undergo an annual industrial hearing screening.
