What are Warehouse Injury Compensation Claims?

Common types of warehouse accidents involve products falling from a height where they have been stacked incorrectly, other employees causing an accident while operating a forklift truck, or an employee being exposed to dangerous chemicals or substances. All of these types of accidents result in different types of injury, some of which are more severe than others, but all of which should not happen.

Your employer has a legal obligation to provide you with a clean and safe working environment, proper equipment and to ensure that all their staff have been fully trained on all aspects of their job.

This includes being fully trained in health and safety at work.

If they fail in their duty to look after you whilst you are working for them, then they can be held to account by the law. No one should ever have to go to work and suffer an injury or death.

We understand that you may feel uncomfortable about making Warehouse Accident Claims against your employer, particularly as you may have concerns over job safety.

The fact is your employer cannot dismiss you if you are injured due to their negligence in the workplace and they must have insurance to cover themselves in the event of an accident. Your employer or company will not have to pay you compensation themselves.

Are Warehouse Accident Injuries increasingly common?

There are many factors that contributed to a significant increase in warehouse accidents and consequent injuries. According to RIDDOR, this type of injuries have become more common following the Coronavirus pandemic in 2020, with March 2021 figures showing an increase of 23%.

The consensus across work safety experts is that the shift in commercial and shopping habits has played a major role in this dramatic increase, which is not expected to return to pre-CoViD figures.

Many shoppers and consumers moved online, which has pushed many businesses to rely less heavily on their brick-and-mortar shops. This in turn meant that business owners began preferring larger warehouses, with the intent of fulfilling online orders.

With warehouses becoming more prominent for all types of business, more workers entered warehouse jobs, growing the workforce in this industry. It was estimated that demand for this type of workers has grown over 40% in 2022 compared to 2019, with some areas in the UK almost doubling in job adverts. Many companies have turned to temporary or contract workers to fill this gap.

There is the possibility that, in order to keep up with the fast and large recruitment process, some companies have cut corners in both training and the provision of Personal Protective Equipment. This may leave managers and business owners liable to Warehouse Accident Claims in case of an injury in the workplace.

If you have been injured while working in a warehouse, you may be able to make a claim against your employer if you believe they have breached their duties towards your safety. Contact PSR Solicitors today, and start the claims process with an expert team of Warehouse Injury Solicitors by your side.

 

What are my employer’s responsibilities to avoid Warehouse Accidents?

Warehouse jobs can involve many risks and hazards, which is why they are regulated by strict health and safety legislation.

Your employer’s duty towards your safekeeping while at work is outlined in the Health and Safety at Work etc. Act 1974. This Act, together with other pieces of legislation, defines the obligations that employers and safety officers have towards employees and members of the public who may interact with the work environment.

Some of the duties described in the Act include:

  • Providing a safe work environment, taking reasonable precautions to avoid or mitigate all risks and hazards
  • Arrange appropriate training for all employees
  • Have regular risk assessments of equipment and tasks, which may need to be documented in writing for most warehouses
  • Properly highlight and label all hazards in the warehouse
  • If necessary, provide adequate personal protective equipment to any members of staff

Any shortcomings of an employer to uphold these standards would indicate a clear breach of their duty of care, and validate a Warehouse Injury Compensation Claim in the event of an accident.

No Win No Fee Warehouse Accident Solicitors

Using one of our specialist No Win No Fee Solicitors ensures that you have a better chance of winning your claim and receiving all of the compensation and help that you are entitled to all on a No Win No Fee basis.

This means that you won't have any legal costs to pay if your claim is unsuccessful so No Win No Fee = No Risk To You.

If you have been injured in a warehouse accident and require more information about the potential value of your Accident at Work Compensation, please take a look at our Personal Injury Claims Calculator.

 

Warehouse Accident Compensation FAQs

Compensation claims for warehouse accidents will usually include two types of compensation:

  1. General Damages are designed to compensate for pain and suffering sustained as a direct result of the injury.
  2. Special Damages is the amount that is meant to compensate the victim of an accident for additional losses that are a result of the accident. These may include loss of earnings for time off work, travel expenses, medical expenses, and additional care costs incurred because of the injuries.

It is complicated to calculate a precise amount of compensation you may be awarded. If you believe you have suffered a warehouse injury because of someone else’s negligence, or an employer’s breach of their duty of care, contact our team of warehouse injury solicitors for a consultation. We will be able to direct you to your options to achieve the best possible outcome for your Warehouse Accident Claim.

Warehouses can be a dangerous environment for many reasons. Warehouse workers are often exposed to a wide range of hazards which leaves them vulnerable to a number of accidents leading to injuries. This can be exacerbated by negligence of an employer towards regular risk assessment, or breach of their duty of care.

Our experienced solicitors can help you with a wide range of Warehouse Accident Claims such as:

  • Slips, trips and falls caused by slippery surfaces, poorly positioned wires, cables and boxes etc.
  • Falling objects due to poorly stacked pallets or shelving.
  • Forklift truck accidents resulting from poor training or negligence by another staff member
  • Exposure to hazardous chemical substances
  • Falls from height
  • Poor safety training regarding manual handling of heavy goods
  • Poorly maintained equipment or lack of appropriate protective equipment
  • Employees injured by a vehicle at work
  • Dangerous procedures and practices at work

If you are looking to claim compensation for a personal injury from an accident in a warehouse and you want free advice from a fully qualified solicitor then please contact us now.

Because of the range of accidents warehouse workers are at risk of, the injuries that can be suffered from them vary greatly. These can be minor or major injuries, up to, unfortunately, fatal injuries.

Our specialist Warehouse Accident Solicitors have dealt with many warehouse injuries, with the most common including:

  • Head Injuries and Brain Injuries
  • Burns and Scarring Injuries
  • Spinal Injuries
  • Nerve Injuries
  • Paralysis
  • Fractures and Broken Bones
  • Amputations

Regardless of the type of injuries you may have sustained, our expert Warehouse Accident Solicitors can help you claim for your accident. Contact PSR Solicitors today for a free, no obligation assessment of your warehouse accident compensation claim. ​​​​​​

As is the case with all personal injury compensation claims in the UK, Warehouse Accident Claims must be started within a time limit.

In most cases, this means you will have to start your claim within 3 years of the original accident. However, some exceptions do exist for specific cases.

Most notably, if the full extent of your warehouse injury was only discovered some time after the accident, you may be able to claim up to 3 years from the date of discovery.

If you’re unsure about the limitations of your compensation claims, contact PSR’s Warehouse Accident Solicitors today. We can assess your claim, and advise you on the most effective way to proceed with your case.
