Audiograms

To meet Occupational Health and Safety and other legislative requirements, the measurement and subsequent tracking of an individual’s hearing is vital in maintaining workplace health and safety by analyzing the effectiveness of a hearing conservation program. ECS Safety Services Ltd. is able to provide quality hearing tests and electronically maintain and track an employees hearing level through out their employment.

Tracking an employees hearing is essential in meeting provincial noise requirements. Only by tracking an employees hearing can an accurate determination of the effectiveness of an employer’s Hearing Conservation Program be made. By comparing work location and job title along with an individual’s hearing level ECS can provide the vital year to year statistics to the employer to ensure compliance with the noise regulations.

As per regulations, ECS Safety Services will maintain records of all hearing tests conducted for a minimum of 10 years. All abnormal hearing tests will be reviewed by an Audiologist. A copy of the test results will be given to each employee who has a hearing test stating that they have been tested, the test results, the date tested on, by which technician, and the company that they work for.

ECS Safety Services requires all of our staff conducting audiograms to be certified as per provincial Workplace Health and Safety Noise Regulations and CSA standard Z-107.6. The audiometric equipment used by ECS Safety Services is certified by a qualified technician and calibrated to meet all regulations including CSA standard Z-107.4 and applicable Noise Regulations.

As per regulations ECS will provide the employer with documentation identifying the employees tested, the date they were tested and we have the ability to provide annual statistical comparison reports customized to meet your needs.
