Accident Claims Scotland, Accidents At Work

Working can be a dangerous business and employers have a duty to ensure your safety.

By law, your employers must have insurance to compensate any employee injured as a result of the employer’s negligence or the negligence of a fellow employee.

Many people are reluctant to claim against their employers and for a variety of reasons. They miss out needlessly because they did not seek the right advice. If you are injured at work, remember that;

• You are claiming against their insurers
  Your employer has paid their insurance premium and any compensation is therefore paid by this insurance and not coming out of your employer’s funds
• Employers cannot penalise you for making a claim or discriminate against you because of your injury
  There are laws to protect your employment rights and our solicitors will ensure your interests are fully protected
• By taking action you may prevent someone else suffering a similar injury in the future
• You may be entitled to compensation even if you are paid your earnings while you are off work following an injury
