Accidents at Work Claims

According to HSE (Health and Safety Executive), 600,000 workers sustained non-fatal injuries in the workplace in 2021/2022 and sadly, 123 workers lost their lives due to work-related accidents. Estimates are based on self-reports from the Labour Force Survey, of people who worked in the last 12 months.

How Do Accidents at Work Happen?

Accidents are an unfortunate reality in life, and they can occur just as frequently in the workplace. Work-related accidents, particularly warehouse accidents, are among the most prevalent. What makes workplace accidents especially distressing is that employees should rightfully expect a safe environment while carrying out their duties.

Employers bear a significant responsibility, a duty of care, to ensure that all necessary precautions are in place to prevent harm to their employees. This encompasses provisions like maintaining a safe working environment, providing adequate training, and ensuring the availability of appropriate safety equipment. Failing to fulfil these obligations could result in liability if an accident does occur, potentially leading to compensation claims for the injured party.

Our dedicated team can provide further details and guidance on pursuing compensation for an accident on a no win no fee basis. Don’t hesitate to reach out to us today for more information.
