Your Accident at Work Claim
Every employer has a legal responsibility to ensure a safe working environment. If you have been injured while carrying out your job, and that injury was caused by a failure in workplace safety, you may be entitled to claim compensation. This applies whether you are full-time, part-time, self-employed, agency staff or a contractor.
At Ask Legal Solicitors, we have helped clients across multiple sectors recover what they are legally owed. From office slips to construction site injuries, we understand the procedures, rights and evidence required to build a strong claim.
Common workplace accidents we handle
- Falls from ladders, scaffolding or platforms
- Injuries caused by faulty or unguarded machinery
- Back and shoulder injuries from heavy lifting
- Chemical burns or toxic exposure
- Repetitive strain injuries (RSI)
- Slips or trips in kitchens, warehouses or offices
- Construction and industrial site incidents
Can I claim against my employer?
Yes. UK law protects your right to work in a safe environment. Employers must comply with health and safety regulations, provide training, maintain equipment, and ensure appropriate protective gear is available. If they have failed in their duties, they may be legally responsible for your injury.
It is also important to know that making a claim should not put your job at risk. Employers are prohibited by law from penalising employees for asserting their legal rights.
What can a claim cover?
- Medical expenses and rehabilitation
- Loss of earnings during recovery
- Reduced future earning potential
- Physical pain and psychological distress
- Ongoing care, therapy or mobility support
Time limits for claiming
You usually have three years from the date of the accident to begin your claim. Acting quickly allows your solicitor to gather stronger evidence, witness statements and medical assessments in support of your case.
