The principle of accident compensation being paid for industrial injuries sustained in the workplace is by no means confined in application to traditionally hazardous industries such as construction and mining.
Indeed, even those who work in the most glamorous of professional capacities have redress to personal injury claims.
Of course, there have been trailblazers. One such was the former Celtic and Scotland footballer Bobby Murdoch.
Murdoch was a member of the famous Lisbon Lions, Celtic's 1967 European Cup-winning side.
And by all accounts he was a very special player. One of his former teammates remembers, "To watch Bobby was an education. He could shape to make a pass with his right foot and then turn on a sixpence and make the same pass with his left. He had radar vision, marvellous at putting long balls into a clear space. He helped me a lot."
However, despite a strong and lasting career, he was always slightly hampered by an ankle injury he sustained in a tackle in 1962.
Amazingly, accident compensation for this on-field incident did not arrive until 1965 when Murdoch won a landmark tribunal decision, in the process setting what would come to be known as the Murdoch Principle.
A leading personal injury solicitor commented, "It is no different from an accident down the mines or an illness such as asbestosis,
"Until the Murdoch case, footballers didn't think it came into the same bracket. A lot of players started claiming, but it has tailed off since then, and there are still far too many guys from the lower divisions who do not know their rights."
