Injury

Our solicitors deal with accident at work claim settlements using the no win no fee system – a revolutionary process whereby you can claim for the compensation you may be owed with no financial risk. We take care of all the fees and there are no deductions made to your compensation. Win or lose there is no charge.

Your employer and the company you work for have a legal duty to consider in advance all the various operations and procedures that you may encounter in the workplace. All activities must be assessed and efforts made where reasonably practicable to reduce any perceived risk. Employers that shirk this legal duty are putting their staff in danger and any resultant injury will give rise to an accident at work claim.

The Health and Safety at Work Act of 1974 is the fundamental UK legislation that deals with your safety in your place of work. It has done more than any other piece of legislation to reduce injuries. There are other statutes that deal with specific safety issues. If you work with chemicals, for example, they must be properly labelled so as to indicate the dangers or potential problems involved. Construction workers similarly require a system of risk management to ensure their daily job does not put them in more danger than is absolutely necessary.

There are also manual handling operations regulations that deal with the safety issues in moving objects physically from one place to another in the workplace. In general, manual handling should be kept to a minimum, so if you have been involved in an accident due to unnecessary manual handling of objects, heavy or otherwise, then you are in a good position to make an accident at work claim.

Noise is also a serious concern in the work place. You have a right not be subjected to high levels of noise. Proper protection must be in place to avoid noise related accidents.

Ventilation, lighting and other basic issues such as heating and the workstation you work with must all be properly maintained and assessed for risk.

For real help with your situation simply fill in the contact form or use the helpline and one of our friendly experts will get in touch with you. We offer free advice and there is never any obligation to pursue the matter. We will give you a realistic assessment of your case should you wish to make a claim. Remember always – we take care of your fees and operate on a no win no fee basis. Win or lose there is no charge.
