About the Client

49th Parallel Coffee Roasters is a B.C.-based specialty coffee company with a roasting operation in Burnaby. For this workplace visit, 20 employees needed occupational hearing testing. Clear Work provided the service directly on-site, allowing the team to complete testing without coordinating individual trips to an outside clinic.

The Challenge
What the organization was facing

Testing a group of employees can quickly become a scheduling problem when each person has to leave the workplace. The goal was to complete hearing testing for 20 employees while keeping the process simple and minimizing time away from regular duties.

Our Solution

1. Coordinate the visit 

Clear Work scheduled the Burnaby workplace visit around the client's operational needs. 2. Bring testing on-site 

The Clear Work mobile hearing testing setup arrived directly at the workplace with the equipment required for occupational audiometric testing. 

3. Test the team 

Clear Work technician Noah Stevens completed hearing tests for 20 employees, with each appointment taking approximately 10 minutes. 

4. Keep the workday moving 

Employees returned to their regular duties after testing, avoiding unnecessary travel to an off-site

Mobile hearing testing is particularly useful when multiple employees need to be tested. At 49th Parallel Coffee Roasters, employees could step away for approximately 10 minutes, complete their hearing test and return to work. That kept the process simple for both the employer and the workforce while avoiding the added coordination of off-site appointments.
