ACCIDENT AT WORK

HEALTH & SAFETY

Every workplace, in every industry, should have specific health and safety procedures in place to deal with the situation where somebody is injured as a result of an accident at work. This is important for the protection of both employers and employees. 

In the construction industry, on building sites, in heavy and light industries, in factories and in warehouses, accidents occur every year that cause injuries to workers. Many of these industrial accidents could have been avoided, and the Health and Safety Executive works hard to enforce regulations and to improve the safety of workplaces. Industrial injuries are caused either through negligence, by accident or through incompetence.

Because of the varying types of industrial accidents, claims can be made for any number of injuries. For example, on building sites, debris or machinery could fall from scaffolding; a construction site accident could be caused by machinery or vehicles; in factories there’s the risk of accident by faulty machinery; and in warehouses there’s often the risk of tripping or getting hit by falling products – victims of any of these accidents could be entitled to claim compensation.

 

DM Legal can assist you if you have been involved in an injury at work. You are an employee of the company and the incident has happened due to your employer failing to provide a safe environment. For example: 

- unsuitable or damaged equipment,

- contact with dangerous materials,

- poor health and safety training. 


If the incident has taken place in the last three years and has been reported and put in the accident book. (no matter how minor the injury all incidents have to be reported and logged in the accident book) then contact DM Legal on 07904620840.


Do not be afraid of claiming as your employer will have insurance. Your employer has to treat you fairly and can not dismiss you for making a compensation claim. You have 3 years from the time that the injury occurred, or the disability is diagnosed, to pursue your right to claim.


Common Accidents at Work

These include being given incorrect tools for a job, tripping over discarded material on the workplace floor, having to use faulty machinery, lack of training to carry out your job safely. 

This includes manually lifting or handling training. 

There can be occasions when you are not issued with protective gloves or equipment that can lead to severe accidents which can lead to the loss of fingers and limbs. 


Accident at work injuries can possibly lead to financial problems down the line as you may not be able to continue doing the job that you were employed to do. In these cases, making a claim for compensation due to an accident at work would ease these problems and also lead to you getting the best possible treatment to enable you to make a full recovery. 


You can call the DM Legal office in Motherwell on 01698308986 or mobile 07904620840.
