      Noise for sure
      Hi everyone,

      I'm a 49 y/o male from the Netherlands.
      Suffering from tinnitus since 1992 or something .
      I work(ed) as a printer for the last 31 years.

      The big noise of the compressors running all day and the hissing of the air caused a constant sound/tone in my hearing.

      Left ear is the worst.
      Sometimes this sound/tone is varying in both strength and pitch and frequency.
      I did not try to find any treatment against it.

      Just have to learn how to live with it.

      I'm always curious on those internet offers though.

      Finding this forum learned me that it's all a big scam....

      Hi Stoyanov,

      I do not know the occupational safety laws in your country, but it may be worth your while to research them and/or contact a lawyer who specializes in this and see what he has to say. You may be entitled to some compensation or aid at the very least. Good luck!
