Workscreen
Powering the Hearing
Revolution.
WorkScreen is a unique hearing test system that uses patented UK technology to provide a user-operated surveillance audiometry hearing test to meet companies’ legal requirements under Noise at Work Regs.
Testing is simple, automatic, high quality, consistent and available anywhere 24/7. This means organisation is flexible, costs are reduced, testing is compliant and risks are reduced.
As a result, WorkScreen clients can reduce costs and get on with more rewarding, demanding or productive work without compromising staff care or protection.
Powering the Hearing Test Revolution
WorkScreen integrates the convenience of our calibrated tablet-audiometer handset with expert human oversight and service
Administered by computers, Overseen by experts
WorkScreen telehealth technology combines digital technology with human expertise: the WorkScreen handset automates hearing tests so that every test is consistently high quality and instantly available wherever you need, whenever you need it. More than this, every test is also reviewed in person, with further individual assessment for each and every referral, ensuring your staff benefit from the best commentary and advice for the real world.
Calibrated and certified
The WorkScreen system is a certified ClassIV audiometer. Each and every handset is independently calibrated and certified to meet the standards required by the HSE to provide surveillance audiometry.
Advanced Audits & Checks
A suite of checks and test monitoring systems embedded into WorkScreen provides a secure audit trail that verifies hearing test performance and correct user operation.
Noise isolating earphones = no booth
WorkScreen uses specialist high quality earphones that are independently calibrated to provide exceptional sound reproduction for accurate, clear tone presentation. Unlike traditional earphones or transducers used in old-fashioned audiology equipment, the same earphones also provide high levels of noise attenuation, which means accurate hearing test results without a sound booth or shelter.
Lifetime Warranty
We believe that unlike your hearing, all hardware is replaceable. That’s why all our plans include a full service package and warranty solution, so that you can be sure you can rely on having the equipment you need on hand without fuss.
Hygienic & Covid-safe
By using touchscreen technology, the WorkScreen handset reduces infection risks by making cleaning fast, easy and safe compared to old hand-held response buttons. After all, if covid is a new phenomenon that is here to stay, basic hygiene has always been a prerequisite and is particularly valued in the food industry.
One System, Many Uses
Surveillance Audiometry is just one application of the WorkScreen system. Our hearing tests also support staff induction and onboarding, welfare, training, PPE awareness or even youth screening. Contact us for more information.

NOT JUST HARDWARE
IT’S ABOUT MORE THAN TECHNOLOGY
E-health
Leveraging the power dedicated IT systems and the internet means that WorkScreen can provide secure and reliable occupational healthcare.
By capturing data once only, directly onto our system, WorkScreen eliminates data-transfer risks and ensures data is available only to those who need it, when they need it.
TeleHealth
Telehealth is the breakthrough technology that means WorkScreen can provide high quality workplace hearing tests, without our experts being “in the room”. In addition to conducting surveillance audiometry at any time of day, our advanced algorithms mean that the only 2 things required are a suitably quiet location and a Wi-Fi or a mobile signal (3G or higher).
Relevant Qualifications Insurance
The WorkScreen audiology team have acoustic qualifications and are fully qualified audiologists, with history providing hearing tests in industrial environments, the NHS and to private patients, to supply hearing aids.
Easy to Clean
WorkScreen is based around a tablet PC – which makes it simpler to keep clean. By doing away with the traditional “patient response button” – which the user would hold in their hand for the duration of the test – WorkScreen has removed a key site of potential cross-infection. You can download our cleaning guidelines on our FAQ page in the downloads section.
Covid Secure
Workscreen supports social distancing measures at work as a user-operated system that is intuitive and automatic, there is no requirement for technical or clinical staff to support users taking a WorkScreen hearing test.
No specialist training
The WorkScreen tablet handset requires no specialist preparation, is simple to operate and has been designed so that anyone who can use a smartphone, can effectively test their hearing with the minimum of oversight. Faster, easier testing with less supervision means workers, employers and healthcare staff can minimise negative operational impacts of testing and focus on high value, core activities.
Self-administered mobile hearing tests
WorkScreen is flexible and adaptable, which means staff can test their own hearing using our revolutionary new system. Our technology allows your office to operate a “drop-in” system, or whatever works for you, so that you can fit hearing tests around your needs with the minimum fuss and hassle.
Fit in hearing tests around work
Workscreen’s handset ensures hearing tests can take place anywhere and are fast and cost-effective, reducing time lost out of the office.
