About the Client
Highland Power has provided powerline and electrical utility services across British Columbia since 1975. The company was founded in Kamloops.
The Challenge
What the organization was facing
Workers exposed to noise need a hearing test every year under WorkSafeBC rules. Sending 50 people to a clinic means hours away from the job.
Our Solution
- On Site: Testing ran in Highland Power's Kamloops office. No clinic trips.
- One Nurse, Two Days: Cheryl, our Certified Occupational Health Nurse, tested all 50 people.
- Records: Results for each worker, plus employer reporting for WorkSafeBC files.
What was included:
- WorkSafeBC hearing tests for 50 workers.
- Calibrated equipment and a certified nurse.
- Individual results plus employer reporting.
The Results

50 workers tested in 2 days

Frequently Asked Questions
Can you test in our office?
Yes. Give us a quiet room and we set up there, as we did for Highland Power. No room? We test in our mobile unit.
How often does WorkSafeBC require hearing testing?
Section 7.8(1) of the Occupational Health and Safety Regulation requires a hearing test as soon as practicable after employment starts, no later than 6 months after the start date, then at least once every 12 months. It applies to workers exposed above the limits in section 7.2: an 85 dBA Lex daily average or a 140 dBC peak.
How many workers can you test per visit?
Here, one nurse tested 50 workers over two days. For larger crews we add testers and days.
