Industrial Deafness Claims

A noisy working environment where you are required to spend most (if not all) of your working day may result in loss of hearing – also referred to as occupational deafness, industrial deafness or noise induced hearing loss.

Industrial deafness affects thousands of people throughout the United Kingdom and in many varying industry sectors including coal mining, manufacturing, engineering, road building, shipbuilding and other factory based environments.

Since the introduction of The Noise at Work Act 1989 workplaces have gradually become safer environments to work in which has caused a substantial reduction in the number of industrial deafness claims being instigated.

You may be entitled to compensation for noise induced deafness if you have suffered hearing loss as a result of working in a noisy environment and our team of specialist claim advisers will be pleased to assess your prospective claim on an initial free no obligation basis.
