Justin lives alone, recently moving into a unit that is one of
six in a complex. He has met most of his neighbours already but has
not talked to them much because he has a hearing impairment and
most people have trouble understanding his speech at first.
He has been working for a paper recycling company in the same
depot for eight years receiving waste paper that is collected. He
works the sorting or bundling machines. Once bundled, the huge
blocks of paper get compacted, ready to be taken to a treatment
plant.
While his hearing impairment has affected his speech
acquisition, Justin gets by lip-reading and using keyword signing
with most of his co-workers and factory supervisor. A new
co-worker, Ethan, is totally deaf and has started teaching Justin
some Auslan. The work environment is very noisy with industrial
machinery, delivery trucks and forklifts operating throughout the
day. Each of the forklifts and machines has visual signals (flashing
lights) when they are operating.
Recently his hearing was re-assessed and a new type of hearing
aid was recommended for him. Trials with the device have been
mixed. Around home the device has worked well but in his workplace
the aid picks up interference and Justin finds the amplified and
distorted sounds very uncomfortable and off-putting. He doesn’t
like wearing it as it is obtrusive and Justin has his head shaved
which makes the device very apparent.
He leaves the batteries out or switches the aid off when he goes
to work, preferring things the way they were without the aid.
