Welcome to the web site of the Occupational Deafness Compensation Board. Occupational deafness is one of the most common occupational diseases recorded in Hong Kong. It is caused by prolonged exposure to noise in the working environment. When damage has been done to the nerve cells of the inner ear, the resulting hearing impairment could not be cured. The Occupational Deafness Compensation Board is entrusted with the responsibility to compensate those employees who suffer from hearing loss due to noise at work. We have also been empowered to organise publicity and educational activities for preventing the disease and to conduct rehabilitation programmes for those contracted the disease. I invite you to visit our web site from time to time for updated information about the Occupational Deafness Compensation Scheme and the activities launched by the Board for the benefits of persons suffering from occupational deafness.
