HEARING LOSS IN NEW YORK CONSTRUCTION WORKERS
New York construction workers can suffer hearing loss after job site explosions.
Excessive noise levels on New York construction sites can cause hearing loss for construction workers. This loss of hearing may be caused by long-term exposure to loud noises over many years or by a sudden incident, such as an explosion. Although some forms of hearing loss can be reversed with medical treatment, many others lead to a permanent condition.
Hearing loss can severely alter a construction worker's quality of life. Everyday interactions with family and friends become more difficult, and enjoyment of simple pleasures like movies and music can be impaired as well. Additionally, these workers may not be able to return to work because of their injuries, perhaps permanently. Finding new work may be difficult, and the quality of living that the victim and his or her family have enjoyed can suffer. New York construction workers who find themselves in this position may need the help of a construction accident lawyer to get back on their feet, medically and financially.
