Hearing Testing
Like many occupational injuries, work-related hearing loss is preventable when controls are implemented, proper protection is provided and required standards are followed. OSHA requires that employees who are exposed to a time weighted average (TWA) of 85 dB be part of a hearing conservation program which includes hearing testing and employee training. Solutions Plus helps industrial manufacturers meet this requirement with our audiometric or hearing test services.

PPE Fit Testing
Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) is worn to keep workers and job sites safe from hazardous conditions. However, if PPE does not fit properly, it can make the difference between being safely covered or dangerously exposed. One size does not fit all, so taking size and gender into consideration is a must. Solutions Plus performs onsite PPE fit testing and instruction to ensure proper fit and a safer workplace.
