In the event that you wish to make a claim on deafness, you and your industrial injury solicitor must be able to prove that the hearing loss has its origins in occupational conditions.
A single previous employer
For a claim on deafness to proceed, it is necessary to prove the liability of the employer.
This can be done by taking statements of evidence from both the claimant and any relevant colleagues he or she may have.
The defendant may also be required to produce documentation relating to such matters as noise levels in the workplace, relevant training delivered to employees, risk assessments and the use of personal protective equipment such as ear defenders.
Furthermore, the claimant will be required to produce medical records detailing relevant health conditions – in addition to this, an assessment of the claimant's hearing loss and / or tinnitus will need to be prepared by an independent medical expert.
If the claimant has had only one potentially liable employer, the issue of who to claim compensation from will be straightforward.
More than one relevant employer
In the event the claimant has worked in two or more separate workplaces where the deafness may have been caused, the question of liability will be rather more complicated.
As such, the personal injury solicitor charged with overseeing the claim must consider a range of matters, such as whether one or multiple parties may be considered liable.
Claim compensation for workplace deafness
