Claim for Work Injuries from Industrial & Manual Environments

This is because most industrial injuries are a result of an employer’s negligence.

How do I Make a Claim for Industrial Injury?

If you suffer from an industrial injury then there are certain steps you should take to ensure your claim has the best possible chance of being successful. You should ensure that the injury is recorded in your employer’s accident book and if the injury is serious it should also be reported to the Health and Safety Executive (HSE), who are the watchdogs for health and safety in the workplace. You should also make a note of anyone who was present when the injury occurred so that our accident claim lawyers for Leeds can approach them to be a witness to your claim.
