What Counts as an Accident at Work?
Accidents at work happen in all types of workplaces. Whether you work in retail, construction, hospitality, offices or warehouses, injuries can occur when safety standards slip.
Common examples include:
-
Slips, trips and falls
-
Manual handling injuries
-
Falls from height
-
Faulty or poorly maintained machinery
-
Electrical accidents
-
Injuries from unsafe working practices
-
Accidents caused by lack of training
-
Harmful exposure to chemicals or hazardous substances
If any of these accidents at work have affected you, our experienced personal injury team can guide you through what to do next.
