If you have been injured in an accident that was the fault of another group or individual, even if they were only partly to blame, then you may have an Accident Compensation Claim. There are several common accident types.
Accident at Work
If you have been injured in an accident at work or working elsewhere you may have an Accident Compensation Claim against a group or individual responsible, including your employer. Employers are required by law to have Employer Liability Insurance and the insurance company will deal with your Accident Compensation Claim for injury and losses, including loss of earnings. Even if your accident hasn't caused you to take time off work, you can still claim compensation for the physical pain and suffering of your injury. Accidents at work can happen in various ways and even if you think no-one was necessarily to blame, you may have a Accident Compensation Claim, involving defective equipment or machinery, inadequate training in the use of machinery, lifting heavy objects, using dangerous machinery, faulty, damaged or slippery flooring, careless acts by other workers causing an accident, lack of safety clothing for example.
