OCC Hearing is the industrial hearing testing division of Anywhere Audiology, providing on-site and mobile audiometric testing services for companies that need to comply with OSHA & MSHA hearing conservation regulations.
Unlike high-volume testing vans that often rely on technicians, OCC Hearing exclusively sends licensed audiologists or trained hearing instrument specialists. This ensures more accurate evaluations, clear communication, and expert oversight throughout the entire process. We also provide concierge-level service with flexible scheduling, on-site screenings, and post-screening support — all customized to your company’s workflow.
In addition to compliance testing, every partnership includes built-in access to ongoing hearing wellness resources and exclusive employee benefits.
Yes. All of our hearing testing services are fully compliant with both OSHA (29 CFR 1910.95) and MSHA (30 CFR Part 62) regulations. Whether your workplace falls under general industry, construction, or mining, we ensure that all protocols — including baseline comparisons, annual testing, and proper documentation — are followed precisely. We can also assist with noise level monitoring and dosimetry when needed.
This is exactly what we do. We bring the equipment directly to your worksite — whether it’s a factory, office, or remote job site. Testing can be done in quiet rooms or in one of our portable sound booths, depending on your needs.
Our testing is manually administered by a licensed audiologist or trained hearing instrument specialist — not self-administered by the employee. This hands-on approach ensures more accurate results, proper instruction, and immediate troubleshooting if needed.
We typically test 8–12 employees per hour, depending on how organized the schedule is and how efficiently employees rotate in and out. On average, each test takes about 5–6 minutes per person, which is the fastest we can go without sacrificing accuracy or compliance.
Our standard package includes:
● Audiometric testing by licensed audiologists or certified technicians
● Baseline comparisons
● Detailed reporting
● Employee education (if requested)
● Employer consultation on compliance
Yes. We provide and maintain detailed, organized records that meet both OSHA and MSHA compliance requirements. Whether your workplace falls under general industry or mining, we ensure all necessary documentation is ready for audit or internal review. We also walk your team through the results and reporting, so you understand exactly what the data means and how to stay in compliance.
We work with manufacturers, construction companies, warehouses, airports, law enforcement, engineers, schools & colleges, and more — essentially any workplace with high noise exposure.
We work with businesses of all sizes — from small shops to multi-site corporations. Our flexible model allows us to service even small teams affordably.
When needed, we engage licensed audiologists through independent contractor agreements to perform hearing testing under the OCC Hearing brand. This allows us to maintain flexibility while ensuring every provider meets our high standards for professionalism, accuracy, and compliance. All testing is conducted by qualified hearing professionals — never general technicians — and we maintain full oversight of the process from start to finish.
Absolutely. We don’t just test — we help design and refine programs that align with OSHA regulations and your company’s wellness goals.
Our pricing is based on group size and logistics, with tiered rates that make testing cost-effective whether you're screening a small team or a large workforce. We provide simple, transparent quotes with no hidden fees, and can include optional services like training or dosimetry if needed.
