From irrigation networks and agricultural processing to equipment maintenance and construction, Anitech conducts baseline and follow-up testing on-site, eliminating travel and integrating with regional operational schedules and seasonal variations.

Mildura’s High-Noise Industries

Irrigation Infrastructure & Water Management

Mildura’s extensive irrigation network operates pump systems, compressors, water distribution equipment, and hydraulic machinery generating sustained 85+ dB(A) exposure. Irrigation technicians, pump operators, and maintenance workers require baseline and regular audiometric monitoring under WorkSafe Victoria standards.

Agricultural Equipment Manufacturing & Services

Agricultural equipment manufacturers, repair centres, and service depots operate farm machinery assembly, welding, and maintenance generating machinery and impact tool noise requiring hearing protection and assessment.

Food Processing & Agribusiness Manufacturing

Fruit packing, drying, processing, and preservation facilities operate line machinery, sorting equipment, and storage systems generating sustained machinery noise requiring audiometric assessment.

Agriculture & Horticulture

Mildura’s surrounding orchards, vineyards, and horticultural operations operate harvesting machinery, pruning equipment, and irrigation controls generating seasonal noise exposure.

Mining & Quarrying (Nearby)

Nearby mining and quarrying operations in the Mildura region may generate drilling, blasting, and extraction machinery noise.

WorkSafe Victoria Compliance for Mildura Employers

Mildura workplaces must comply with WorkSafe Victoria requirements under the OHS Act 2004 and Model WHS Regulation 58. Audiometric testing is mandatory where:

  • Workers are exposed to noise at 85 dB(A) or above
  • Workers are frequently required to wear hearing protection equipment (HPE)
  • Baseline testing establishes individual hearing profiles
  • Follow-up testing (typically annual) monitors hearing loss progression

Common Questions About Audiometric Testing in Mildura

1. Are irrigation system operators required to have audiometric testing?

Yes, if they operate pump systems, compressors, or machinery generating sustained 85+ dB(A) exposure. Baseline testing establishes hearing profiles; annual or biennial follow-up tests monitor hearing health across Mildura’s irrigation network.

2. Can Anitech work around seasonal agricultural employment?

Yes. Anitech coordinates testing for seasonal agricultural workers, conducting baseline assessments during hiring and follow-up tests throughout employment. Testing is flexible around harvest cycles and seasonal employment patterns.

3. Are agricultural equipment service technicians required to have audiometric testing?

Yes. Equipment repair shops, service centres, and manufacturing operations all generate machinery and impact tool noise requiring baseline and regular audiometric assessment.

4. Can Anitech test fruit packing and processing facility workers?

Yes. We conduct testing for fruit packing, drying, sorting, and processing operations across multi-shift facilities, coordinating with production schedules to ensure all workers receive baseline and follow-up assessments.
