Many Scottish workers will have been affected by industrial deafness. Those industries most at risk are; shipbuilding, coal mining, metal manufacturing and engineering (factory environments) where noisy machinery is used.

Our role at Redress is to ensure that everyone affected by Industrial Deafness see the quality of their lives improve following the award of cash compensation.

Occupational Deafness, Industrial Deafness or Noise Induced Hearing Loss, is a deterioration of a person's hearing over a prolonged period of time as a result of their working environment.

Redress can help to establish what was responsible for the deafness, the extent of the illness and just how much compensation you should be paid.

Contact Redress today and they will use their expertise in industrial work related diseases to help you claim the compensation you deserve.

Who is to blame for your Occupational Deafness?

Your employer is responsible for Industrial Deafness.

If your hearing has deteriorated and you were once employed in a constantly noisy environment, you may be entitled to make a personal injury compensation claim for Noise Induced Hearing Loss.

To help prevent more cases of Industrial Deafness, the Noise at Work Act 1989 was introduced. This Act put in place rules relating to health and safety in the workplace which must be adhered to. Those rules combined with advances in technology have created quieter workplaces and incidences of industrial deafness are now much rarer. In general workplaces are a safer place to be now than they have been in the past.
