Accidents at work

Being injured at work is by far the most common injuries that occur and can be the most complex. Here at Accident Consult we are aware of the difficulties in dealing with making a claim against their employer. We understand why many people may be too frightened to make a claim due to the worry of losing their job. We shall treat each case with great care and attention so as to cause as little aggravation as possible.

Employers have the duty to make sure the job their employees carry out is safe and they are not legally allowed to terminate their contract. Work places have to follow strict health and safety regulations and if your employer fails to do this then your case for compensation will be much stronger. Employees have insurance to cover the legal fees against these types of accidents. You can claim compensation for an accident that occurred up to 3 years ago. There are many different types of accidents that occur at work these include:

• Dangerous machinery
• Training and safety equipment
• Disease, deafness and other long-term injuries
• Lifting heavy objects
• Repetitive Strain Injury (RSI)
• Hazards at work

If you have an injury at work the first thing to do is report this in the accident book, this is a legal requirement. Then make arrangements for statutory sick pay.

With Accident Consult we work on a no win no fee basis so there is nothing to lose.
