Accidents at work compensation claims usually involve people who have suffered serious injuries through:
- Working with machinery
- Working at height on construction sites
- Trips or slips
- Lifting or manual handling
- And other general types of accidents
Work accident compensation claims usually involve a claim for compensation for injury (both physical and psychological) together with a claim for loss of earnings for the time the injured person spends off work. Other expenses such as travel costs and medical bills can also be recovered.
In the case of more serious injures there can be compensation claims for future losses also if they cannot return to their job due to the nature of the injury they have suffered or they can only work reduced hours.
The effects of such work accidents can be far reaching for the injured person and their family.
Employers have a duty to ensure that employees can do their job in a safe environment using safe materials and if necessary, be provided with the correct equipment. There is also a duty to provide full training.
Employees are generally well protected by Health & Safety Regulations and in some cases the Health & Safety Executive will become involved and investigate an accident for their own purposes.
