Accidents / injury at work
Suffering an accident or injury at work can have a devastating impact upon you and your family.
Your employer has a duty to protect you and to keep you informed about health and safety issues that may affect you and your family. This includes providing a safe place of work, suitably maintained machinery, health and safety training and protective equipment. Your employer is under a duty to complete Risk Assessments to ensure your place of work and system of work is safe.
If your accident or injury occurred due to a fellow employee or another company at your place of work your employer may still be responsible for that accident or injury.
Our specialist lawyers act for clients advising on compensation claims in respect of accidents at work or those unfortunate enough to suffer an occupational disease. That advice and assistance includes obtaining interim payments for loss of earnings and medical treatment when needed.
