Accidents at Work

Employers, no matter the industry in which they operate, have a duty of care towards their employees to protect them from harm by enforcing the health and safety standards that are relevant to your industry. This may include the provision of personal protective equipment or adequate training to safely perform the job role that is required.

If your employer has failed to enforce any health and safety standards that are relevant for your industry, and this has resulted in an accident occurring, you may be able to claim compensation. Similarly, if another employee has acted negligently and this has caused you to be injured in an accident, you may also be able to claim.

Accidents on the Road

Road traffic accidents can have a serious physical and emotional impact upon those involved. The injuries that are caused by these sorts of events are often quite severe and they can potentially lead to a long recovery period. Therefore, being able to seek compensation if the accident was not your fault, can often be incredibly helpful in reducing the financial burden that you might be experiencing.

Compensation can pay for any necessary treatment and it can recoup financial losses that you might have incurred if you have had to take time off from work. Contact First Personal Injury to start the claims process today.

How much compensation am I owed?

Compensation is decided on a case by case basis, taking into account the pain and suffering caused by your injuries and the impact that these injuries have had upon your ability to function/your amenity. For example, if you can no longer complete tasks that you normally could, you may be able to be compensated for this loss of ability.

Compensation also takes financial loss into account. If you have experienced a loss of income due to your injuries, then it may be possible to account for this loss of income through compensation. Similarly, if you have had to pay for treatment or other costs associated with your injuries, it may be possible to claim these costs back through compensation.

To calculate how much compensation you could be owed, use our compensation calculator. However, it is important to remember that these figures are just estimates based upon previous cases. The best way to determine how much compensation you are likely to receive in your case is to speak directly to a personal injury solicitor.

How do I make a claim?
