Access to Work
Is a government funded scheme that helps those with a hearing loss have equal access to workplaces. Access to Work can help if your hearing problem affects the way you do your job. It gives you and your employer advice and support with extra costs which may arise because of your needs.
Employers are required to make ‘reasonable adjustments’ for staff that are deaf or have a hearing loss as enshrined in the Equality Act 2010.
Accessing this scheme will help you to obtain hearing aids or equipment that are much more suited to your working life. If you are eligible or need assistance call us for a consultation on 020 8455 6361
