Some contracts create a situation where an accident at work may have more serious implications than usual, and the 2008 news that a UK firm was bidding to create the protective structures for Chernobyl, itself the site of a famous work accident, gives a good example of this.
Unusual situations, however, such as work abroad and dangerous locations for the work to occur in, are not enough to remove the necessity to avoid foreseeable industrial accidents through the use of risk assessments and training across the workforce.
The above example of a UK construction firm applying to work at the site of a nuclear accident also provides an example of this being planned for; the shield they propose to build over the remains of the power station is designed to be built offsite and dragged into place, thus minimising exposure to the potential for radiation-related work injury cases (and perhaps compensation claims) to result.
When unforeseeable accidents occur, causing employees personal injury, the situation regarding litigation becomes more complex. However, the point in question during the personal injury claim will be whether those accidents were truly unforeseeable or simply unseen.
It should also go without saying that the more usual risks of workplace accidents should not be forgotten while the unusual risks are being considered; they should be thought of as additions to what is normally on the risk assessment, rather than replacements.
