Work place injuries are not uncommon in UK even majority of the work place injury accidents that happen, actually occur despite employers being vigilant about the safety of employees. According to the UK law employees who have suffered a personal injury are eligible to file a work accident claim. This article will help you understand the various steps you should follow to get maximum compensation for a work place injury claim.
Step #1- Soon after the accident at work occurs the claimant should report the accident to his employer. The employer will register an official report in a work accident book that is required to be filed by the law. The claimant should make sure that an authorized person fills this book and that the right details are entered. If the employer agrees then the claimant should try to get a copy of the report filed in the official book.
Step #2 – The claimant should then visit the doctor at work to get his work place injuries treated. If needed the doctor will ask the claimant to visit a specialist or visit a hospital. Whichever doctor the claimant chooses, he should make sure to get an official medical report such as a doctor's note with the diagnoses. If the claimant is paying any medical fees for the doctor's service or for treatment then the claimant should collect payment bills and receipts to prove that he has spent money to get his work place injury treated.
Step #3 – The claimant should find a witness at work who has seen the entire accident. The witness may be asked to testify or answer questions to cross check if the accident indeed occurred or not. The claimant should make sure that the witness's report matches with the claimant's report since any differences will cause problems with the work place injury claim. If possible then the claimant should ask the witness to write down what he saw and sign the letter.
Step #4 – The claimant should hire a personal injury solicitor who will help the claimant file the <a rel="nofollow" onclick="javascript:pageTracker._trackPageview('/outgoing/article_exit_link');" href=" /">work place injury claim.</a> The solicitor will help the claimant prove that he was not at fault or was only partly at fault so that the claimant gets maximum compensation. The solicitor will also represent the claimant when required and talk to the required authorities on behalf of the claimant. In addition, the solicitor will give the claimant legal advice to prepare him in case there are any problems. Personal injury solicitors can be hired through accident settlement companies that offer legal services. These companies offer no win no fee services through which claimants can enjoy legal benefits without having the liability of paying any fees.
