Comprehensive Spirometry Testing for Employers

What is a Spirometry Test?

A spirometry test is a lung function test that measures how well your lungs are getting air in and out. It also looks at how quickly you can exhale.

Spirometry is one type of lung function testing, and it is performed using a machine called a spirometer.

When we run spirometry testing, we normally incorporate this test as part of a wider Pre-Employment Medical Assessment, with a focus on industrial and occupational health

A spirometry test may include:

• Lung function measurement, which assesses airflow and lung capacity.
• Diagnosis to help identify conditions like asthma, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), and other respiratory issues.
• Monitoring or ongoing testing to meet your needs.

Why Are Spirometry Tests Important?

• Workplace safety & employee health. Identify respiratory conditions early and reduce work-related health risks.
• Compliance with Occupational Health Standards to meet WorkSafe, Safe Work Australia, and industry-specific requirements.
• Reduce respiratory health incidents. Proactively monitor employees in high-risk environments such as construction, mining, manufacturing, and transport.
• Fast, reliable results. Get immediate verbal confirmation and same-day or next-day written reports.
