Accidents at Work

Over a million people suffer from accidents at work every year. And while some of injuries are minor, others can have serious consequences such as time out of work, financial and emotional strain and even permanent disability or death. Credit Crunch UK can assist you in making a claim for workplace accidents, helping you get back on track as quickly as possible.

Your right to compensation for accidents at work

The law sets out many rules to protect you from accidents at work and compensate you if you become injured while working. You are entitled to compensation if you can prove that the workplace accident was someone else’s fault - this could be your employer, a fellow employee or another company based at your place of work.

Your employer is not allowed to treat you unfairly or dismiss you for making a workplace accident claim. They are also required by law to have insurance against staff accidents. This means that their insurance company will pay your accident compensation, not your employer.

Eligible workplace accident claims might involve injuries from:

• Unsuitable or damaged equipment

• An unsafe system of work

• Dangerous working practices

• Contact with dangerous materials

• Poor health and safety
