We continue to identify ways of mitigating the loss associated with these claims. Under the Act, Employers/Carriers are not afforded apportionment for non-industrial factors included in the total loss. Without a change in the Act, employers bear the burden of validating the extent of one’s hearing loss. Our speakers will discuss testing designed to help objectively determine the thresholds of one’s hearing.
