£5,500 Awarded to Manufacturing Worker for Industrial Hearing Loss

Stanworth Law successfully secured £5,500 in compensation for a manufacturing sector worker who had gradually lost their hearing over a 15-year period.  

Starting your industrial hearing loss claim

The industrial hearing loss claim began when our client, who had worked for 15 years in a demanding manufacturing environment, approached us about his deteriorating hearing. In our first meeting, our specialist industrial hearing loss solicitors documented his testimony.  

The client spoke about his work history and how much industrial noise he had been subjected to.  

To assess the client and prove that the industrial noise had contributed to his hearing deterioration, Stanworth Law had to conduct our own investigation. We began gathering evidence related to the exposure to noise. What we found is that our client was exposed to noise from heavy machines, including metal presses, production lines, drilling machinery, milling machines, and lathes.  

Stanworth Law’s comprehensive approach guarantees that industrial hearing loss claims are professionally documented, and a robust case is compiled. We created a compelling case showing how the prolonged exposure to the excessive noise had directly impacted on our client’s professional and, more importantly, their personal life.  

A qualified NHS Audiologist was then brought onto the case to further supply the medical evidence of the hearing deteriorating, which we then could correlate to the noise exposure data we had collected. A clear link between our client’s hearing loss and the noisy work environment was made.
