Client Success Story: Hearing Loss Compensation for Former Ground Worker
At Stanworth Law, we recently secured a successful compensation claim for a former ground worker who suffered from noise-induced hearing loss after over two decades in the construction industry. Despite this consistent exposure to dangerous noise levels, our client was never issued with adequate hearing protection, nor was he provided with routine auditory checks or health and safety guidance.
Our client worked from 1976 to 2000, regularly exposed to loud machinery such as jackhammers, excavators, and pneumatic drills without adequate hearing protection. Despite years of damaging noise exposure, his hearing loss went undiagnosed until much later in life.
When the client contacted Stanworth Law, he was uncertain whether he could pursue a claim, especially so long after leaving employment. Our team quickly took action, conducting an in-depth review and compiling supporting documentation. We promptly coordinated all necessary steps from arranging an audiogram to a full medical assessment with an ENT expert. Throughout the process, we maintained clear communication, arranged local appointments, and handled every detail with professionalism.
Ultimately, after the diligent negotiation our client received a compensation settlement of £3,445.20. He later shared how pleased he was with the professionalism and empathy shown by the team at Stanworth Law. He particularly valued our persistence in pursuing a fair resolution and the consistent support we provided during a difficult time. The outcome not only delivered the compensation he rightfully deserved but also brought a sense of justice and closure for the workplace difficulties he faced. Our focus on client welfare and strong legal representation proved instrumental in achieving a positive result.
