It is always your employer's responsibility to ensure you can perform your job safely. Accordingly, compensation for injuries and loss of earnings is available for employees who are hurt at work, on and off office premises. By law, employers are covered by insurance, to cover such eventualities.

In order to make a successful claim, the accident must have been in some way the fault of your employer or the fault of another employee for whom the employer was responsible.

There are many sorts of accident which may be claimed for. Below are the main categories. However, we will assess whether you have a possible claim.

Machinery

You may be able to claim compensation for injuries: if the training you were given to operate the machinery was insufficient; if the machine malfunctioned; or if a mistake by another employee has harmed you.

Lifting

You may be able to claim compensation for injuries: if the training you were given to lift objects safely was insufficient; or if your employer did not correctly assess the risk of injury due to lifting objects.

Falls

It is the responsibility of your employer to ensure your safety in the work place. If you fall on unsafe stairs or ladders, slip on a slippery floor where there was no warning, or trip on messy cables, or other objects lying around, you may be able to claim for compensation.

Repetitive Strain Injury

Each case will be assessed on its own merits.

LongTerm Illness

In general, claims for compensation for illness or injury must be brought within three years of the cause. However, in cases where the illness or disability did not become apparent until long after the cause, you may still be able to claim. In all cases you should seek your doctor's medical advice and our legal advice.
