Even if you are self-employed or working through an agency the company you are working for may still have a duty of care towards you.
As on all of our cases we act on a NO WIN NO FEE basis which allows us to offer you the best possible service whilst also giving you peace of mind.
On top of any physical injuries you can also claim for loss of earnings. If proved, this can provide you with recompense for the period you have had off following the accident.
Employers have a duty to train their staff on general health and safety risks and on the specific task the employee is asked to carry out. This training should be refreshed from time to time.
If you haven’t been specifically trained on the aspect of the job and you have hurt yourself carrying out the job then you may have claim.
