Accidents in the workplace

More accidents happen at work than anywhere else. Almost half of all accidents happen in the workplace. It can often be difficult for employees to instigate claims if actual injury has been suffered. Employees are scared of possible "repercussions" if they involve the company in court proceedings.

These fears are groundless as employers are obliged by law to have insurance, which covers them if an employee suffers injury in the workplace. Action can be taken against employers who discriminate because employees are pursuing legitimate claims for accident compensation.

Not that there is a crossover between liability in negligence and the duties which have been imposed by law to cover specific accident situations (particularly Health and Safety regulations). There are also laws with which employers must comply with or risk criminal and civil prosecution cases.

Our advice is that the first practical thing to do if you suffer a work accident and you are going to be off work for a period of time, is to make sure you receive statutory sick pay. If you are still off work after six months, you can seek long-term invalidity or disablement benefit. Check any additional contractual payment which is available.

All accidents should be noted in the company's accident record book (required by law). If there is no company book, or if no-one has made a note of the incident then tell your employer in writing the full circumstances of the accident and details of the personal injury.

Can you make a claim? - you will have to prove that your employer has caused the injury through failure to take reasonable care (there are different legal standards required regarding subcontractors or visitors).

The company must provide a safe way to carry out work; safe premises; suitable materials and equipment; training courses and supervision; competent staff and so on.

The employer must ensure that you are able to carry out work in the safest way possible, regarding the equipment that you work with and the tasks involved. Typical standards within the industry can be used as a benchmark to assess whether the employer has done enough to avoid the injury or accident.

What can be covered

Many people have misconceptions about what one can and can't claim when you have a personal injury, and just how much you can expect to get financially for the injury incurred. We'll try and cover all the basics here, and provide you with some examples of the range of damages that different claims can achieve.

All claimants are entitled to damages for the personal losses suffered as a result of the accident, which will include damage to clothing and personal possessions, loss of earnings and any insurance policy excess. If you have been personally injured in a road accident and your vehicle is off the road for then you can also request a hire car in your claim.

Often, you will be covered for the personal pain and suffering endured as a result of the accident. You can also cover future losses, for example an inability to carry on with your work, loss of future promotion prospects, and an inability to participate in sports. Solicitors always split the payment you could receive into categories called General and Special Damage claims.

If injured as a passenger in a car or in a motorbike incident, then you may have a claim and you should proceed, no matter who the actual driver of the vehicle was, even if you know them.

You should not be concerned by the fact that you may know or are related to the driver - this must be of no consequence. You may be embarrassed about bringing a claim, but you shouldn't be. If the driver of the vehicle you were in was not at fault, then your claim will be against the other third party responsible. If your vehicle's driver was partly or wholly at fault then the case will be handled his or her insurers, so they will not be paying you themselves at all.

Always remember that the driver of your vehicle owes you a legal duty of care to ensure that you are at all times reasonably safe. The same legal principle applies to other drivers. If this duty is breached and you are injured then you may well have a claim that can be made.

Passengers have legal rights, just as drivers do. Be sure to make a note of any injuries, no matter how superficial they may seem. They could be worsening later with more serious complications which set in.
