Questions of liability in a work accident claim

If you suffer an accident at work for which it can be proved another party was completely responsible, you will receive 100 percent compensation for your injuries.

However, it is worth bearing in mind that receiving 100 percent compensation may not always be a realistic aim for the claimant. This is because, if the behaviour or actions of the claimant in some way contributed to the incident, any settlement will be reduced accordingly.

This is issue of whether an employer's liability should be considered as partial or whole is often one of the most contentious issues at the heart of any work injury claim.

Consequently, it is not uncommon for either the claimant or the defendant to an appeal a decision because of dissatisfaction with the apportioning of liability in an original ruling.

This can be a tricky area to navigate for the claimant, making it essential that he or she has the representation of a leading no win, no fee solicitor.

For example, an employer might claim that a worker who has suffered injury in a fall from height should be considered liable for a portion of his or her injuries because of failures to adhere to Work at Height Regulations.

However, it is likely that an employer will only succeed in this argument if the worker has been adequately trained and informed of his or her obligations.
