Audiology is a branch of science that studies hearing, balance, and related disorders. Audiologists are healthcare professionals who provide patient-centered care in the prevention, identification, diagnosis, and evidence-based treatment of hearing, balance, and other auditory disorders for people of all ages. Hearing and balance disorders can be assessed, treated, and rehabilitated by an audiologist.

Noise-induced hearing loss (NIHL) is the most common occupational disease and one of the common self-reported occupational illnesses or injuries.
Many of the workers working in the industries in UAE are exposed to sound levels exceeding 75-80dBA, leading to permanent and incurable hearing damage. Hearing loss is usually gradual due to prolonged exposure to noise and sometimes occurs immediately by sudden exposure to loud noise.
Noise related damages are preventable if adequate measures are taken to implement the Noise Conservation Program at the worksite.
Keeping these factors in mind, we provide the below mentioned high quality audiological services to ensure the hearing is conserved:
- Periodic hearing testing with the latest technology equipment
- Noise risk assessment study, if required
- Provides recommendations for noise regulations
- Awareness programs for the employees
- Determining the need for Hearing Protectors and its use and maintenance
Our occupational hearing testing program will serve as an integral part of your hearing conservation program and will keep your company in compliance with the country’s rules and regulations.
