Factory Accident Compensation Claims

If you have been injured in a factory accident, contact the JMW team to discuss a potential factory accident claim. Unfortunately factory accidents are relatively common in the UK, often as a result of lax health and safety measures or poor supervision on the part of the employer.

If you feel that the accident that caused your factory injury was the fault of your employer, supervisor or a fellow member of staff, contact the accident at work solicitors at JMW as soon as possible to discuss a potential compensation claim. Call 0800 054 6570 or complete our contact form.

Can I Claim Compensation for My Factory Accident?

If the accident that caused your injury was not your fault, it is highly likely that you will be able to make a factory accident claim. There are a number of common causes of factory accidents, following which employees regularly claim financial compensation:

• Faulty, poorly maintained machinery
• Chemical spills
• Falls from height
• Manual handling, lifting and carrying
• Negligently operated forklift trucks
• A lack of appropriate personal protective equipment
• Mistakes made by fellow employees

If you have been forced to take time off work following a factory accident, losing wages and incurring debts for household bills and medical fees, contact JMW’s accident at work team. We can help you claim the compensation you deserve.

Making a Claim

Your employer is required by law to hold Employers’ Liability insurance, and it is this insurance which covers the cost of your claim. You cannot be dismissed for making a factory accident compensation claim; if your employer attempts to do so, our employment law department will be happy to provide legal advice regarding unfair dismissal law.
