Unfair labor practice. An unfair labor practice in US labor law refers to certain actions taken by employers or unions that violate the National Labor Relations Act of 1935 (49 Stat. 449) 29 U.S.C. Â§ 151â169 (also known as the NLRA and the Wagner Act after NY Senator Robert F. Wagner) and other legislation.
Advanced age is the most common cause of hearing loss. One out of three people age 65-74 has some level of hearing loss. After age 75, that goes up to one out of every two people. Researchers don't fully understand why hearing declines with age. It could be that lifetime exposure to noise and other damaging factors slowly wear down the ears' delicate mechanics.
Hearing loss comes with age but can affect anyone. According to a study in American Family Physician, at least 25 percent of people over 50 experience hearing loss, and 50 percent of people over 80 experience it. One way to test for hearing loss is through the use of audiometry. An audiometry exam tests how well your hearing functions.
