Industrial and Factory Accident Claims

We are specialists in handling compensation claims in virtually every type of workplace.

Industrial and factory settings are very common places for accidents to happen, often nasty ones.

If you suffer an accident at work in industry or in a factory, it is very likely that you will be able to make an injury claim for compensation.

Industrial and factory accident claims we have run successfully include:

• Accidents caused by inappropriate or inadequate protective equipment
• Injuries caused by defective or dangerous machinery or incompetent workmates
• Trips or slips in untidy workplaces or on slippery or dangerous surfaces
• Injuries involving heavy, repeated or awkward lifting, often called “manual handling”
• Accidents suffered in the construction industry
• Injury caused by exposure to harmful and dangerous substances
• Employees exposed to violent situations or attacks
• Falls from height and case study

There are many, many more types of industrial or factory accidents where we have won claims.

Just think; it is estimated that employees lose around five hundred and fifty eight million pounds a year in loss of earnings and expenses suffered due to accidents at work.

Those same victims suffer again in the form of pain, inconvenience and loss of amenity.

Remember; employers are under a duty to try to ensure that you are able to carry out your work in the safest way possible, bearing in mind your type of job, the tools and materials you work with and the kind of work involved.

Employers must ensure that your workplace and premises are safe and they have to carry insurance.

Some people fear that their employer might sack them if they claim, but the law affords you some protection, so ask us about that.

We can help you with your industrial or factory accident compensation claim and we can assist you with advice on employment issues and with welfare benefits advice.
