Accidents occur at work even though employers try their level best to make the work place safe for employees. According to the UK law employers are liable to pay employees an accident at work compensation amount if the employee was injured at work due to no fault of his own. This article will help you file a successful accident at work compensation claim so that you get your deserved compensation.
Soon after the work accident occurs the employee should report the accident to his superior so that an official entry can be made. The employee's superior will make an official entry into a work accident book. By law every employer is required to have one such book and enter details into it when an accident at work occurs. The employee should make sure that correct information is entered and that an authorized person makes the entry.
The next thing the employee should do is to get his injuries checked by the doctor at work. The doctor at work will refer the employee to a specialist if needed, but employees should remember that if they want to file an accident at work compensation claim then they must get all injuries checked even if they seem minor. Employees are advised to collect bills, payment receipts and other documents that prove that the claimant suffered a work injury and as a result he had to spend money for treatment.
The claimant will then need to find a witness who was present when the accident occurred. Since the witness may be asked to testify in court, the claimant should make sure that his story tallies with the witness's story since any discrepancies can lead to the claim being rejected.
Claimants should remember that it is always better to hire a solicitor if they want the best compensation since solicitors have the legal knowledge required to win accident at work compensation claims. Personal injury solicitors not only offer legal advice but they also represent the claimant while talking to the judge and while talking to adjusters or insurance companies. Personal injury solicitors also reduce the amount of work the claimant has to do regarding the claim since these legal professionals do most of the work like collecting proof for the case by themselves.
In most cases the employer will try to take the employee out of filing an official case and the employer will try to make the employee settle for a small amount. In this case the claimant should consult a solicitor and ask him to deal with the employee especially if the claimant wants maximum compensation . Under no circumstance should a claimant try to negotiate with the employer on his own since in most cases the employer will offer the claimant a compensation amount that is not enough.
