Accident or Injury at Work
If you've had an accident or injury at work it's your right by law to be compensated. Whatever the cause of your personal injury, one fact remains true: you do not need to suffer in silence. With the compassionate expertise of Applebys Solicitors, you can quickly learn if you have a legitimate case that merits pursuit in a court of law.
As long as the injury or accident occurred less than three years ago, you have time to claim the compensation you deserve. It doesn't matter where at work your accident occured, whether in an office, a supermarket, a building site, a factory, or while driving on the job (lorries, trucks, forklifts, whatever).

Types of Accidents
The list of mishaps that frequently happen on the job is a long one. Employees may be involved in vehicular or construction site accidents, incidents involving scaffolding or a ladder, slipping and falling, or getting hurt while performing a manual handling task. In addition, personal injury at work can take place if an employee is not properly trained to carry out a task or if he or she has been issued faulty equipment. A lesser known but equally devastating cause of personal injury at work results from the acts or incompetence of other employees. It is incumbent on your employer to ensure that your workplace complies with all health and safety standards. Problems happen if management allows floors to remain wet, dangerous chemicals to remain in the environment, or improperly trained employees to handle equipment.

(1) Asbestos exposure
(2) Carpal tunnel syndrome
