Industrial Accident Compensation Claims

Making an industrial accident claim if you have been injured at work

Industrial accidents happen frequently. On average, 25,000 serious accidents take place in the UK every year. Compensation for an industrial accident will be awarded if it can be proved that someone is to blame - whether it is your employer, a fellow employee, or another company carrying out work on-site.

If employers fail to take reasonable care of employees and to keep their workplace safe, they will be deemed to be negligent by the courts. Even if employers do not break the law, there is a range of benefits that you are entitled to in the event of an industrial accident.

There are various health and safety laws which aim to protect you and give you the right to claim compensation if you become injured in an industrial accident. These regulations help you to prove liability and recover compensation if an industrial accident does occur.
