Certain jobs have risks attached to them such frozen shoulder, back problems or neck problems. In order to ensure that employees due not suffer while working for a company, the UK law states that employees are allowed to claim for compensation for work related accidents. This article will elaborate on a few things claimants must know about work related accidents if they plan to file for compensation.
There are several health and safety laws that require the employer to ensure that the employees work in a safe environment. If the employee suffers a work related injury then he or she will be compensated by the employer. If the employer cannot prove that he followed all the laws or if it is proved that he has not followed a certain law that lead to the employee's injury then the employer will be asked to pay a certain amount to the employee.
The amount of compensation paid for work related accidents will depend on the seriousness of the injury and if the injury leads to permanent disability. If the claimant suffers from a permanent injury like long lasting back pain then he will be offered a bigger compensation compared to an employee who fractured his leg due to a work accident. If the employee's ability to perform his job is affected then he will also be compensated for that. If the employee has been hospitalized or bed ridden for a certain period of time due to which he lost wages then the claimant will also be compensated for lost wages.
In order to get 100 percent compensation for work related accidents it is important for the claimant to submit a strong and convincing case. Since most employers try their level best to show that the employee was entirely at fault it is often recommended to hire a professional solicitor while filing the claim. The solicitor you hire to represent you in court will try his level best to convince the officials that the injury at occurred due to no evident fault of your own and the injury occurred due to the employer's negligence. He will also ensure that you do not settle for a low compensation and he will work on your case until you get 100 percent compensation. Your solicitor will also deal with the adjuster and convince him that you have suffered a lot due to the accident so you should be compensated for pain and suffering also.
Personal injury lawyers who take accident at work cases can be found online. You can either opt for an independent solicitor or an accident settlement company that offers free legal services. These companies offer claimants free legal advice along with free legal services so that the claimant gets 100 percent compensation as soonas possible.
