HOOVER CAUSES DAMAGE TO HEARING OF EMPLOYEES
Work related hearing loss is a problem for many people who have worked in noisy environments. If you think your hearing might have been damaged you should contact us straight away to see if you are entitled to compensation.
Often symptoms can come on gradually years after the exposure has ceased. This leads people to assume that other factors have caused the hearing loss and they do not think it is work related.
Hoover opened its factory in Pentrebach, Merthyr Tydfil in 1948 and was a major employer in the area for over 50 years. At its peak in the 1970s Hoover employed over 5,000 workers many of whom worked in a noisy atmosphere.
WE Solicitors have sucessfully obtained compensation many ex-employees of Hoover who had been advised their hearing was damaged due to loud noise.
Considering the large workforce exposed to loud noise at Hoover WE solcitors are concerned that many more workers might not even know they can claim.
WE solicitors are arranging for FREE hearing tests to all former employees of Hoover. If you would like to find out if you have noise damage please contact us on 0800 294 3065
