Accident at Work

As an employee, you should be covered by your employers insurance for any form of personal injury. It is compulsory that they should have this insurance.

To have a claim, it must be proven that your employer, or another employee, were at fault. There are different types of reasons for accidents at work including:

i) Inadequate Training
ii) Inadequate safety procedures
iii) Inadequate protective clothing
iv) Slippery floors or work surface
v) Thoughtless work by a fellow employee
vi) High level of noise
vii) Insufficient ventilation

If you are concerned about claiming against your current employer then it is important that you get good advice. If the accident was not your fault then you are entitled to claim and that is why the claim procedures are in place. It could also help to prevent the accident happening again to someone else.

As qualified investigators, we can ask the employer for all relevant documentation surrounding the claim. This will include all training documents, accident books, accident reports and investigations, risk assessments and maintenance records. These along with detailed witness statements will help prove the liability in the accident.
