For decades, employers in manufacturing have managed hearing conservation through scheduled testing weeks, often removing employees from production lines for extended periods. This has created challenges in productivity and compliance, while occupational hearing loss remains a leading workplace health concern.
EarTuff was founded by hearing industry professional Jonathan Cantrell and U.S. Army veteran Edgar Gonzalez. The company combines experience in clinical hearing care and operational management to deliver an on-site service model intended to streamline compliance while supporting worker health.

The program includes:
- Sound surveys with consulting on effective noise-reduction strategies
- On-site hearing testing that accommodates large groups of employees efficiently
- Employee training provided by certified hearing professionals
- Custom hearing protection designed for long-term use
- A secure digital portal with access to compliance documents, training logs, test results, and protection inventories
According to EarTuff, this model can reduce disruption to production schedules and support accurate tracking of hearing conservation efforts. The company emphasizes that each component of the program is designed to align with OSHA requirements while also helping safeguard long-term employee well-being.
“Hearing health in industrial environments is often addressed through compliance, but prevention is just as important,” said Edgar Gonzalez, Co-Founder of EarTuff. “Our focus is to provide a system that allows companies to meet requirements while protecting workers in a practical way.”
Cantrell added: “Every accurate test result matters when it comes to hearing safety. By bringing clinical standards into the workplace, employers can address risks more effectively and with less disruption to daily operations.”
The company positions its service as a structured approach for industries where noise exposure is a routine challenge. For employers, the benefits include simplified compliance management and less downtime during testing. For workers, it represents consistent monitoring, improved access to protection, and greater emphasis on prevention.
