Accident At Work

 

At your workplace, your employer has a legal obligation to maintain certain health and safety standards to minimise the risk of workplace accidents. To offer adequate protection from the chance of an accident at work, employers must ensure the following:

 

Carry out regular health and safety assessments and risk assessments of working

conditions and equipment and correct any problems.

Ensure that adequate safety measures are in place and being followed.

Provide proper equipment and training on using the equipment for the job.

Provide correct and adequate training for all employees to ensure they can carry out

the requirements of their job and use their equipment safely.

 

To claim for a work related injury or accident you will be required to provide some evidence that your injuries are the result of an accident or working method in your place of work. This could be in the witnesses, employer’s logs, previous similar work accidents, ambulance attendance at the scene plus many others. Then, it will have to be proven that the injuries were the liability of the employer or person in charge, though this will be up to your solicitor to do you will be part of the process and should be aware that you will be giving evidence against your employer.

 

Every employee must exercise care and follow the safety procedures outlined by his or her employer. Should an employee become aware of any health and safety he or she must notify their employer. Common injuries in the workplace are injuries to the back and spine, injured limbs such as arms hands and legs.

Work Related Accidents: What You Should Do?

 

If you suffer a work related injury, you should immediately notify your employer about the accident as your company may have an established work accident compensation claim procedure. Your employer is legally required to keep an accident book with a record of all work-related accidents both in case of a compensation claim and to help avoid future workplace accidents.

 

You should also seek advice as soon as possible from a specialist work accident claims solicitor at Veja & Co who can tell you whether you are entitled to make a claim for compensation. Your solicitor will help you thoroughly document the circumstances which led to your accident and will make detailed notes about the effects of your accident or injury on both your physical well being and your quality of life.

 

Veja & Co's team of expert work accident solicitors can provide assistance on any work related accident compensation claim, even if you are self-employed. Solicitors from Veja & Co deal with many work-related compensation claims which include:

Building site injury compensation claims

Factory and industrial accident claims

Office accident claims

Compensation for injuries that were the result of a slip, trip and fall

Compensation claims for psychological injuries

 

You shouldn’t be afraid of bringing a compensation claim for an accident at work against a current or former employer. Your employer has a duty to provide you with a safe working environment and if they have failed to do this then not only have they put the safety of you and your colleagues at risk, but they have also broken the law. If after making a claim you experience problems at work or are unfortunate enough to be dismissed and you feel that your claim has caused this then here at Veja & Co Solicitors we are also able to advise you about your rights as an employee and deal with any claim as well.

 

If a Veja & Co personal injury solicitor believes that you have a viable work accident compensation claim, we will take on your case and handle your claim on a no win no fee basis. You will receive 100% of the compensation that you are awarded.

 

Personal injury compensation claims can take time. If you have had to leave employment as a result of your accident, we can provide guidance on where to go to obtain financial assistance or claim benefits. We will also apply for advance payments of your compensation where possible. In addition, we can help you get the right medical advice and rehabilitation assistance, medical equipment you may need to maximise your recovery or to reduce the discomfort caused by your injury.

 

You can claim compensation even if you think that you may have been partially to blame. It's important to know where you stand, so please call us for a free consultation with one of our solicitors on the freephone 0800 975 5764  or send us a completed form using this link, if only to put your mind at rest.
