Whilst at work your employer has a duty to protect you from harm and inform you of any health and safety issues that may affect you.
Your employer is legally obligated to protect you from injury at work, and all workplace health and safety arrangements should be continually reviewed.
Regulations are in place governing the use and maintenance of equipment and workplace training. If your employer fails to implement an adequate Health and Safety policy and you are hurt, compensation could be due if you can prove any injury was your employer's fault
If you suffer an injury at work the incident should be logged in your employer's accident book. If you have an accident you should ensure your injury is recorded as it will help with any subsequent compensation claim.
Your employer is also required to report any accidents and diseases to the local Health and Safety department which prevent workers from doing their job for more than 3 days.
If you have had an accident it is advisable to check that your employer has correctly reported the incident.
If you have been injured and think it was your employer's fault, you should seek legal advice to find out if you have a valid claim.
Any claim for compensation must be made against your employer within three years of the date of accident. It is advisable that as soon as you are injured you seek legal advice.
