Work Injury & Illness Claims
Industrial Deafness
Industrial deafness or noise induced hearing loss can be an occupational disease caused by exposure to very loud noises in the work place over a period of time. The symptoms may not develop immediately but may be noticed over the following months or years. A persons hearing will deteriorate and often it is family or friends that notice first.
Hearing does deteriorate over time and with people changing jobs more regularly it may be hard to prove which employer has caused your hearing loss. However if you feel your employer has subjected you to excessive noise in the workplace and failed to protect you then you could claim.

FAQ
How do I know if I have a claim?
You can only claim compensation for an injury if a person or organisation is at least partly to blame. They must have been careless about the way something was done, or not done when it should have been.
A personal injury can happen at work or in a road traffic accident. It may also be due to a faulty product, a mistake during medical treatment or because you tripped on a paving stone or slipped on a wet floor in a shop. It can also include an illness or condition caused by your working environment, such as contact with asbestos.
An injury may be psychological as well as physical, so you may be able to get compensation for distress or upset after an accident as well as for the physical injury.
You should get legal advice before you contact the person or organisation you think caused the injury or before replying to any letters or offers to settle your claim.
