Have any of these accidents happened to you? We want to help.
If you’re injured at work in an accident that wasn’t your fault, you might be owed compensation. Work injuries and work-related illnesses are often caused by employers and managers failing to follow health and safety rules, neglecting their duty of care to keep you safe at work. Here are some common accidents that you could claim for:
- Slips, Trips, or Falls - Accidents due to poor floor maintenance, inadequate signage or unsafe cables
- Injuries While Lifting - Suffered harm while picking something up at work
- Hurt by Defective Machinery or Equipment - Injured because of defective machinery or poorly maintained working equipment
- Falling objects - Hurt from falling equipment or materials dropped from above
We’ll support you in your right to claim
If you’re worried about claiming because you think you think it could affect your job, don’t be. Although a common concern for many, by law you cannot be fired or dismissed for bringing a claim after being involved in a workplace accident.
John Kushnick, our Legal Operations Director, says
"No one should worry about bringing a legitimate claim for compensation. It is illegal for employers to take action against employees after a legal claim. Employer liability insurance is compulsory for businesses and your claim will be handled between your lawyer and an insurer."
You don't deserve to feel anxious about your health, job or money after an accident at work. That's why we're here to help you make it right with a work injury claim.
Fair compensation since 1993
Since our beginning, we’ve focused on being honest and transparent. Work injury compensation is intended to cover your losses as well as aid your recovery and we want to make sure you’re paid what you deserve. Some claim management companies and solicitors will state that they only take a success fee of 25% of the settlement when there can be other charges during the claim process, such as VAT, insurance and sometimes even higher legal fees that they’ll take from your compensation.
But at National Accident Helpline, we do things fairly. We only partner with solicitors who will discuss all costs with you upfront before you decide whether to pursue your claim, so you’ll know exactly what your claim could be worth and what you're likely to take home.
