Are you suffering from hearing loss after a long career in a noisy environment? Take action against industrial hearing loss today – you could be entitled to compensation.
Hearing loss is an extremely common workplace-related injury across Australia. From transport and construction to mining and manufacturing, employers throughout the country have a responsibility to monitor the hearing of their employees every year.
If you’ve started to notice difficulty hearing the TV or having simple conversations with family members at home, you should arrange a hearing assessment as soon as possible. While your hearing problems may seem infrequent at first, problems that have been triggered now can eventually present themselves in later life.
We regularly see retired workers who are finally experiencing frustrating and embarrassing hearing problems due to work they did years ago. So if you’ve noticed any issues with your hearing, act now and arrange an assessment today by calling 1300 731 710.
Compensation and expenses covered
If you’re suffering from hearing loss due to noise in the workplace, you may be entitled to compensation. Your hearing loss must exceed a 5% Whole Person Impairment (WPI) or minimum 8.8% binaural loss to be considered for compensation.
The compensation offered by the scheme covers all your medical expenses, including the purchase of any hearing aids and rehabilitation treatment. Eligible workers are entitled to the most modern and discrete hearing loss devices, ensuring that your quality of life will be improved.
It’s possible to make a claim when you’re well into retirement, however, we always recommend acting as early as possible to make the most of your claim.
