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.

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.
