Inadequate Training Injury Claim

It is a requirement of both EU and UK law that every employee receives adequate safety training. Sadly, some employers fail to give their staff the correct training which can often result in injury being sustained by an employee or their colleagues.

According to official statistics, over 130,000 people were injured in the workplace in 2009. Many of those people will have been injured due to inadequate training and may face loss of earnings as well as a reduction in their quality of life.

What can cause these injuries?

Accidents from inadequate training in high risk industries, such as construction, can be serious. Falls from heights are common injuries to workers across all industries. The majority of these are likely to have been caused by the improper use of ladders, scaffolding or other equipment necessary for working at height.

Some  workers may sustained major injuries handling, lifting or carrying. These injuries may include back injuries, caused by poor training in lifting procedures or a lack of suitable lifting equipment.

Electric shocks may result from the inappropriate use of almost any electrical equipment, while anyone handling hot substances or chemicals is at risk of getting burned if procedures are not in place and being followed.

Other long-term medical conditions can develop from poor safety procedures. For example if an employer does not introduce suitable breaks in the pattern of work certain workers may develop repetitive strain injuries (RSI) or specific conditions such as dermatitis, asthma or vibration white finger.

We don't believe that you should suffer just because your employer may not have provided the right type of training to you and have the expertise to obtain the maximum level of compensation available to you. Our service is discreet and we will not contact your employer during your initial free consultation.
