Industrial Deafness

Industrial Deafness Claims – Justice Legal Trust

Industrial deafness, also known as occupational deafness or noise-induced hearing loss, refers to hearing deterioration caused by prolonged exposure to high levels of noise in the workplace. This condition can be triggered by sudden loud noises or by long-term exposure to constant noise.

A common symptom of industrial deafness is Tinnitus, where individuals experience persistent sounds such as ringing, buzzing, whistling, or hissing in one or both ears. It’s important to note that you don’t have to be completely deaf to make a claim—hearing loss can range in severity, with different stages of deafness, including:

• Profound Deafness – Reliance on lip reading and sign language
• Severe Deafness – Use of hearing aids, but still reliant on lip reading
• Moderate Deafness – Hearing aids required
• Mild Deafness – Muffled hearing, difficulty following conversations

Industries Commonly Affected

Prolonged exposure to excessive noise in the workplace can lead to industrial deafness. The following industries are most commonly associated with this risk:

• Textile Industry
• Foundries
• Fabrication
• Demolition
• Roadworks
• Woodworking
• Factories & Manufacturing
• Construction Sites
• Nightclubs
• Processing Plants

Despite regulations like the Control of Noise at Work laws, many workers continue to be exposed to harmful noise levels that can cause permanent hearing damage. Employers are legally obligated to provide adequate training, safety equipment, regular breaks, and properly maintained equipment to reduce the risk of such injuries.

If your employer has failed to meet these obligations, and your hearing loss can be attributed to their negligence, you may be entitled to claim compensation.
