Kelly works at a shipyard. He has hearing loss and needs to wear hearing aids.

When he needed new hearing aids, his audiologist referred him to WorkBC Assistive Technology Services for funding help. He applied and was quickly approved.

“It was able to supply me with some funding in help in paying for a new set of hearing aids that were needed for my hearing loss,” he shares.

He has already noticed a big difference at work with his new hearing aids, saying he recommends WorkBC Assistive Technology Services to others in need.

“[It] has given me better hearing with my co-workers and consumable suppliers,” Kelly says.

WorkBC Assistive Technology Services is operated by Neil Squire. Assistive Technology Services are available to individuals who have a work-related barrier due to a disability or a functional limitation. This may include barriers related to traveling to and from the workplace.
