Properly fitted hearing protection is critical to employee safety. Honeywell (NYSE: HON) has released an upgrade to its popular earplug fit-test software VeriPRO 4.0 to improve its speed, reliability and usability.

Noise-induced hearing loss affects millions of workers globally. Using a simple test administered under headphones in any office or workroom, VeriPRO helps employers determine proper fit and aids in the selection of the best hearing protection for workers. VeriPRO 4.0 offers improved navigational ease with new graphics, is compatible with Windows 10/7 platforms, and is now available in 12 languages.

First introduced in 2008, VeriPRO helps protect noise-exposed workers in more than 20 countries and can test the real-world protection levels of earplugs from any manufacturer.

VeriPRO 4.0 is offered as a free upgrade for existing VeriPRO users, who can access the secure VeriPRO Resource Center at www.howardleight.com/veripro/resource. Installation support and product information is available from Honeywell Technical Services at 800-873-5242.
