| Audiometric tests (hearing tests) are obtained utilizing a
manual or microprocessor audiometers (WebAudi accepts either one). OSHA Law
requires the minimum frequencies to be tested are; 500, 1000, 2000, 3000, 4000
and 6000Hz. OSHA and WebAudi strongly advise adding 8000Hz to help determine
aging-vs-noise related hearing problems. Test scores are entered in WebAudi

Remember, according to OSHA, employees must be out
of industrial noise (we at WebAudi advise all potentially harmful noise)
14 hours prior to testing or its equivalent (Quiet-Rule) proper
utilization of hearing protection, prior to testing.
Testing Environment- to insure proper (legally
binding) test scores, ambient noise levels should meet or exceed OSHA
Standard To best meet these requirements, WebAudi and OSHA strongly
advise the utilization of a sound room or sound test chamber.
