ACCIDENT CLAIMS RELATED TO THE WORK PLACE

Accident claims related to the work place can usually be pursued where your employer has failed to provide adequate safety or training within the work environment. Your work place must be a safe environment and to help make sure of this, there are many health and safety regulations in place that your employer should adhere to.

Every employer must implement these stringent rules and regulations to ensure the health and safety of their staff, contractors and visitors.

Typical injury claims arising from an accident within the work place can be caused by:

• Providing defective or unsuitable machinery or equipment
• Using hazardous working practices & procedures
• Allowing contact with dangerous materials
• Failing to supply protective clothing equipment
• Trip or slip hazards
• Lack of training or incorrect training
• Heavy lifting
• Falls from heights
• Actions of other colleagues

In England and Wales, all employers must have an insurance in place to cover themselves in the event of you claiming for compensation for injuries sustained due to an accident at work.

Employers can face heavy fines or even imprisonment if they fail to implement the correct health and safety regulations.
