A SHOEBOX Case Study
Case Farms, a fully integrated poultry farming and processing company, needed a more efficient way to manage OSHA-required occupational hearing conservation across its plants and remote facilities. With a diverse workforce and a process that previously relied on an outside mobile hearing truck, the company faced language barriers, time-consuming paperwork, limited testing frequency, and difficulty establishing clear hearing-loss baselines. Case Farms turned to SHOEBOX Audiometry, using SHOEBOX’s iPad audiometer to bring testing in-house.
With SHOEBOX, Case Farms can administer hearing tests on-site without a sound booth, review results immediately, and have employees complete paperwork in the same appointment. The solution improved workflow, reduced time off the job, made baseline testing possible several times a year, and eliminated the need for costly outside services and booth installation. By moving the program in-house, SHOEBOX helped Case Farms streamline recordkeeping and achieve significant cost savings versus traditional occupational hearing testing approaches.
