ACCIDENT AT WORK CLAIMS

The government recognizes that many workplaces can be dangerous due to the nature of the work environment and the possibility that people in the workplace can be negligent. To minimize the risks of accident in the work place, there are strict health and safety Rules to govern everything in the work place.

Accident at work can occur at any time and these can range from injuries caused by a failure to properly dispose of needles in hospitals to who is allowed to build scaffolding on construction sites.

Because safe working practices aren’t always followed, there is a risk that employees in the workplace can sustain  injuries whilst in the course of doing their jobs.  These injuries can often leave workers with serious injuries or illnesses that can lead to loss of earnings, and sometimes even loss of life.

How do I know if my employer is responsible for my accident at work?

The law places an obligation on your employer to make sure that the work environment is safe. Therefore, where you sustain injury because of a failure to follow the health and safety guidelines your employer will be responsible. Even if the person who was negligent is another employee or manager, your employer is ultimately responsible for keeping you from harm in the workplace.

What is my accident at work claim worth?

Every compensation claim depends on the nature and extent of the injury sustained. Therefore, whether the injury is long term and whether it might affect your ability to make a full recovery will affect the value of your claim. Other factors that might affect the value of your claim might be lost earnings or any unexpected medical expenses you may have had.
