Work Claims Bureau helps hundreds of workers every year in claiming when they are injured in an accident at work through no fault of their own.
According to the Health and Safety Executive (HSE), there were around 600,000 non-fatal injuries in the UK workplace in the year 2016-2017. Combined, slips & trips and lifting/handling injuries accounted for more than half of these accidents. A significant number of these injuries will have been to the hands.
Your employer should have a liability insurance policy providing cover in the event that an employee is injured in the course of their duties and redress is due. If your employer has failed in its duty of care and you are injured as a result, then you have a right to seek compensation for your injuries and other losses arising from them.
It is vitally important, if you are involved in an accident at work, that management and the health & safety representative are informed so that a formal accident report can be completed.
Pursuing matters on your own can be daunting and it’s recommended that you seek legal expertise to make sure the claim procedure is properly followed and that your chances of success are, and that all aspects of your claim are considered. That’s where Work Claims Bureau can help.

Where liability is disputed, we’ll call on years of experience in litigating for injured workers.
