You may feel reluctant to make a claim against your employer for fear of victimisation or even losing your job. Your employer has a legal responsibility to provide a safe and secure workplace, provide competent co-workers, adequate materials and equipment, a safe system of work with proper training and supervision. Even if your industrial injury was caused by faulty machinery or equipment supplied by another company, the responsibility remains with your employer to ensure that it is safe for you to use and you have adequate training. If the industrial accident at work was not your fault, you're entitled to reasonable compensation for your injuries, and the pain and suffering caused.
Even if your industrial injury was caused by something a fellow worker did, or didn't do, your employer will still usually be liable (assault by another employee, being one of the main exceptions to this).
An industrial injury in the workplace is common and your employer will have insurance to cover compensation claims from employers who have sustained an industrial injury. The case will be handled by the employer's insurance company and victimisation is rare.
In some cases your industrial injury may leave you unable to continue working and it is probably then inevitable that your employment will be terminated. YouClaim can help you claim for loss of earning and loss of future income as a result of your industrial injury. Compensation awards in cases like these can be substantial.
