Work Accidents can vary from a slip or trip in an office to accidents involving heavy machinery or vehicles. Employers have a legal responsibility to provide employees with a safe environment in which to work including ensuring safe equipment is available, that there is a safe system of work, competent colleagues and proper training and supervision.
Regardless of the nature of the accident or its severity, if it can be established that your employer failed in their responsibility to ensure your safety at work you may be able to make a claim for compensation .
