Are Aldi Responsible for Customers’ Safety?

The Occupiers’ Liability Act 1957 states that supermarkets, like Aldi, have a duty of care to ensure their premises are safe for customers to use. Therefore, they must take reasonable steps to prevent accidents from happening, such as cleaning up spillages and ensuring that walkways are free from obstructions.

What Can I Claim for If I Have Had an Accident in Aldi?

If you’ve been injured in a Aldi accident, you may be entitled to compensation for:

Pain and suffering caused by the accident.
Lost earnings due to time off work.
Medical expenses.
Travel expenses related to your injuries.
Costs of any care or assistance required.

What to do if you are Involved in an Accident in Aldi?

If you’ve been injured in an accident at Aldi, you should seek legal advice as soon as possible. To make a successful claim, you must be able to demonstrate the accident was caused by the negligence of Aldi.

You should also ensure that you:

Report the accident to a member of staff and the accident is recorded in an accident book or a similar document

Is there a Time Limit for Making a Claim against Aldi?

In the UK, most personal injury claims will have a three-year time limit from the date of the accident. Therefore, you must begin legal proceedings within three years of the accident if you want to make a successful claim for compensation.

There are some exceptions to this rule. If the injured person is under 18 at the time of the accident, they will have three years from their 18th birthday to make a claim.

It’s always best to seek legal advice as soon as possible after an accident to give yourself the best chance of making a successful claim.
