Compensation for accidents at work
Employers are obliged to offer their staff a healthy and safe environment to work in. This means undertaking an assessment of the risks that exist in the workplace, as well as providing training and work equipment to ensure that each employee is able to carry out their job in a safe manner and in a safe workplace.
Over the past few years, Health and Safety legislation has also significantly increased the level of protection available to employees in the workplace. There are now written laws to prevent work accidents which apply to most areas of work.
If you have been seriously injured in an accident at work, you may be entitled to pursue a claim for compensation. Health and Safety may also be called in to investigate the work accident, to ensure there has been no breach of health and safety regulations that are in place to protect employees in the workplace.
