Accidents at Work

Whether you work in an office, factory, on a construction site or indeed anywhere else, your employer has a legal duty to provide a safe working environment. As well as providing safe premises, this includes suitably maintained machinery, health and safety training and protective equipment. 

If you have suffered a physical or psychological injury at work, you may be entitled to compensation. Examples include:

  • Slip, trip or fall injuries
  • Accidents arising from faulty equipment such as filing cabinets or plant machinery
  • Accidents involving fellow colleagues or visitors to your place of work

If your employer has failed in their duty to comply with safety regulations, and not taken all practical steps to ensure safe working practices and a safe workplace, compensation may well be recoverable for a workplace injury claim.
