Hand Injury

Hand Injury

Injuries to the hands are inconvenient at best and at worst, devastating. They are one of the most common types of body injury as our hands are in frequent use throughout the day. In the workplace, our hands are vital to do our jobs easily so an injury can make our roles incredibly difficult to carry out. This can include injuries to the nails, fingers and the wrists as well.

If you have suffered an injury to any part of your hands or wrists in the workplace that wasn’t your fault and has resulted in an inability to carry out life as easily as normal, you may be able to make a claim for compensation.

At Injury Lawyers UK we have a team of experienced lawyers who have a wealth of knowledge and experience when it comes to accidents occurred in the workplace. We understand how stressful hand injuries can be to you and your family and will do everything we can to secure compensation if we feel there is a case.

Types of Hand Injury

Hand are complex organs involving multiple ligaments, nerves, tendons and joints. Therefore, the range of injuries a person can incur may affect any of these elements.
The main categories of hand injury are:

  • Fractures
  • Dislocations
  • Cuts
  • Burns
  • High pressure injuries
  • Infections
  • Soft tissue injuries
  • Amputations

In the workplace, these injuries are often caused by trauma or from excessive use. Employers have a duty to implement health and safety procedures that protect their workforce and any visitors on their premises. This includes protection within reason from a risk of injury caused by falls, dangerous practices, insufficient training, unsafe manual handling and operating dangerous machinery.

Am I Eligible for Compensation?

If you have suffered a hand injury after an accident at work that wasn’t your fault, you may be eligible to claim. At Injury Lawyers UK we can assess your potential claim and outline your options for starting legal proceedings if we think you have a case. We always aim to claim for the maximum amount of compensation available to you and this not only takes into consideration the emotional trauma and stress you have experienced but also the financial costs.

Health & Safety

Health and Safety at Work

Wherever you work, there are always risks to your health and safety whether you are in a predominantly office based position or a physical role. All places of work are bound by the Workplace (Health, Safety and Welfare) Regulations 1992 to provide protection for employees. Workplaces have a duty to provide an environment that protects the ‘health, safety and welfare’ of their employees and any other individual on the premises. Whatever protection is in place, injuries and potential health hazards will still occur. However, if all the appropriate procedures are not put in place, this risk increases and puts staff at unnecessary risk of injuries that could have been prevented.

If you have suffered an injury or health issue at work, it can have drastic consequences. This may include loss of earnings, an inability to work or a financial and emotional impact to you and your family. At Injury Lawyers UK we have vast experience in helping claimants who have had an accident in the workplace and can help you claim for the compensation you deserve.

Faulty Equipment

Defective Work Equipment Injuries

Accidents at work occur due to many different scenarios and more likely than not will involve a piece of work equipment which has been provided by your employer. As a result of these accidents at work involving work equipment the level of Personal Injury suffered by employees range from minor lacerations through to the most serious life changing injuries.

Employers must ensure that the work equipment they provide you is suitable, maintained, not defective in any way and also that you are fully trained in their use in accordance with various sets of Health & Safety Regulations, you can view these on our website here.

The term work equipment is used as a generic term to describe every tool, apparatus, appliance, installation or anything else provided to you to assist you in undertaking your employment. This ranges from the kettle in the kitchen to the most complicated piece of machinery you can imagine. If you have been involved in an accident at work as a result of a piece of equipment being faulty, due to the fact that you were not trained in how to use it or due to it malfunctioning in any way you are entitled to compensation. More often than not employers, following on from the accident, tend to try and pass blame for accidents from them to the employee themselves. Even if this is the case no matter what you have been told here at Injury Lawyers UK our no win no fee solicitors can advise you as to whether this was indeed the case, Our experience is that in most cases despite the blame being placed on the employee by their employer they go on to successfully recover Personal Injury compensation as a result of the injuries they sustain at work due to defective or non suitable work equipment.

Dangerous Machinery

Personal Injury Claims due to Dangerous Machinery

For a large number of workers in the UK, exposure to machinery in the workplace presents a hazard on a daily basis. Those employed in the construction industry, agriculture, garages, food processing plants, production lines, and much more are all faced with potential dangers throughout their working life, with risk exposure a part of day-to-day employment.

While most machinery featuring in workplaces is harmless and limits risk, it is heavily reliant on regular maintenance, inspection, and the quality training of users. Without such protocols in place, however, the potential for harm and injury is accentuated. At Injury Lawyers UK, we want to ensure that anybody suffering personal injury due to the negligence of others in the workplace has access to the legal advice necessary to pursue a personal injury claim.

Common causes of accidents

Workplace machinery is not, to all intents and purposes, dangerous. Only through external factors does the element of risk associated with such equipment become prominent. Over the years, Injury Lawyers UK has experienced claimants that have had the misfortune to be the victim of malfunctioning machinery and negligent operation, resulting in serious injury and a level of stress for the individual and the family. The causes of such accidents often fall within one of the following categories:

  • Ill-fitting or insubstantial protective equipment
  • Negligent operation of others
  • Lack of training before operation
  • Modified machinery that no longer meets safety guidelines
  • Improper maintenance work
  • Manufacturing errors

While there are, of course, a number of other causes of dangerous machinery accidents in the workplace, there is often responsibility to be found at the root of all injuries. Although we neither encourage nor condone a blame culture when it comes to legal action, we do feel it prudent that you have access to legal support as and when you have suffered at the hands of others’ negligence.

Eligibility for a Personal Injury Claim in the Workplace

Suffering a work-related injury due to exposure to dangerous equipment can change your life – as well as the lives of your family – forever. A serious injury may well find that you are out of work for months at a time, perhaps even incapable of returning to work whatsoever. Alternatively, you may have to change your career direction due to your injuries, meaning your earning power is significantly reduced. Such situations are all-too common among those that have suffered an accident at work, and it is also your family that feels the effect of your injury.

With Injury Lawyers UK, you can sit down with legal experts and discuss the nuances of your situation. We’ll take the time to determine whether you have cause for legal action and identify the solution best suited to ensuring you can receive the justice and the compensation you deserve. It’s our aim to provide you with everything you need to maintain your standard of living, regardless of the accident you suffered in the workplace.

No win, no fee solicitors

Not every claim is successful. In some instance, accidents simply occur due to no fault of any party. Because of this, we believe it’s important to provide legal services in a manner that is fair and affordable. That’s why we provide a no win, no fee service to claimants, and will offer a full and frank assessment of any claim you have to ensure that pursuit of any compensation is undertaken with the best chance of success.

What’s more, should you successfully pursue legal action against another party, we guarantee you will receive 100% of the compensation you’re entitled to. Any legal costs incurred during the process will be funded by the other party, leaving you free from any concerns that unexpected fees or charges will be levied at the end of the case. Peace of mind in any litigation is essential, and we work hard to ensure you are free from any undue stress.

Due to the very hazardous nature of many activities undertaken at work on construction sites it is very easy to see how an accident which causes injury could occur. The working environment on a construction site is reliant on many different tradesmen working all in sometimes confined spaces and upon the construction site. This leads to many different risks which could ultimately cause an accident at work on a construction site.

If you have been involved in an accident on a construction site, here at Injury Lawyers UK we make sure that you are well looked after. As you will know it may be difficult to pin down the correct tradesman or contractor who caused your accident. Whilst your employers always have a responsibility for your safety at work it may be more appropriate to direct your claim to another company, this will not only give you the piece of mind in coming with us, but will not affect any future roles that may be offered to you on construction sites in the future if you are self employed.

Construction site accidents on many occasions cause serious injuries and loss of income. Whether self employed or not our specialist no win no fee solicitors will ensure that your construction site injury claim will be dealt with efficiently and will ensure that everything is done to recover all losses.

Loss of Earnings both Past and Future

Construction Site Accident claims often involve many complicated aspects over an above the Construction Site Regulations mentioned above.

Our No Win No Fee Solicitors will provide you with all the necessary advice to ensure that you secure enough evidence relating to future loss of contracts as possible so as to be able to claim the loss accordingly.

Disadvantage on the Labour Market

Due to the serious injuries sometimes suffered as a result of construction site accident many victims find themselves in a position where they are unable to return to work in the same capacity again, whether on a construction site or not. This leaves them at a disadvantage on the labour market. If you have suffered significant injuries as a result of your accident on a construction site and can not return to your previous employment or trade you are entitled to claim compensation for this loss over and above your claim for personal injury. This is even the case if your capacity to work is reduced to a lower level than before your construction site accident.

Rehabilitation Services

Our aim here at Injury Lawyers UK is to get you back to good health as quickly as possible, this reduces the strain on you and your family and can ensure that you can return to working health sooner rather than later after your construction site accident.

Loss of Congenial Employment

Most tradesmen working on construction sites have all chosen their careers and work very hard at obtaining the appropriate qualifications and training as well as the appropriate experience in their field.

Dangerous Practices

Dangerous Practices in the Workplace

Regardless of profession, working hours, and position in a company, being able to ensure you’re in a comfortable and safe working environment is essential to your well being. As such, your employer has a legal obligation to maintain the working conditions for all members of staff, and failure to adhere to such responsibilities means that the level of liability they can potential face is significant.

At Injury Lawyers UK, we have a team dedicated to ensuring you get the compensation you deserve in such a situation, and have the experience to help identify the potential success of any claim.

Dangerous procedures and workplace injuries

Risk assessment is an important responsibility for any employer; without conducting thorough investigations into the potential dangers associated with a given role, your employer will be in a position of negligence should an incident occur. As is often the case, however, many potential risks will go overlooked, and the damage caused to an individual’s health, earning power, and ability to work can be greatly compromised.

At Injury Lawyers UK, we’ve witnessed a number of scenarios – some of which seem innocuous – that have resulted in significant harm being done to an individual. As such, we’re able to identify where any potential claim lies, helping you receive the justice you deserve and the compensation you might require. Some of those examples have included:

  • Failure to provide suitable safety clothing and apparatus
  • Employees lifting and carrying objects without the correct equipment
  • Injuries caused by faulty equipment
  • Poor illumination in working areas
  • Exposure to dangerous chemical and substances

Scaffolding Accidents

Matthew Waterfield

We are Injury Lawyers UK, we are here to help you get the support, treatment and compensation you deserve following an accident. Like many in our team our Senior Partner Matthew Waterfield has been dealing with personal injury claims for over twenty years.

Accidents in Working Environment

The construction and maintenance of a property usually brings about the erection of temporary scaffolding. Being able to rely on the scaffolding to scale heights in order to conduct heavy work is thereby essential, and should the scaffold structure fail to deliver the support necessary, serious – if not fatal – injuries can occur. Both for employees on a construction site and the general public, inadequately constructed scaffolding presents a risk that can lead to costly compensation claims should an accident occur.

At Injury Lawyers UK, we’ve worked with a number of claimants in seeking due justice and compensation as the result of a scaffolding injury. Submitting a personal injury compensation claim for such an incident means seeking the compensation you and your loved ones are due should you be incapable of working due to injury or unable to find future employment.

Types of claim

When it comes to scaffolding accident claims, identifying the party liable for when an accident occurs is essential. Incorrectly erected scaffolding presents a risk to those working on it and those simply passing by. As such, erecting scaffolding should be carried out by experienced professionals that work in accordance with the Work at Height Regulations 2005, the Provision and Use of Work Equipment Regulations 1998, and the Personal Protective Equipment at Work Regulations 1992. Failure to uphold such regulations will often mean liability for such incidents as:

Types of Construction Injury

Working on a building site or industrial area obviously comes with an element of risk. And, while you may be equipped with the best personal protection equipment available, injuries upon your person may still occur. With crane operators – and those in the vicinity – the level of risk is enhanced due to the nature of the machinery being used. For example, some of the most common types of crane-related accidents include:

  • The crane coming into contact with power lines overhead
  • Mechanical defects
  • Errors in the assembly and rigging of the crane
  • Objects falling from the crane
  • Collisions with other structures
  • Collapse of cranes
  • Inclement weather conditions causing operational issues

With so many crane-related accidents possible, and the level of severity high, it pays for employers to offer a degree of protection and insurance for those working on site. In the event that such an accident occurs and an injury is sustained, it becomes important that you are afforded the compensation you deserve.

Am I eligible to claim compensation for my injuries?

Health and Safety in the workplace, regardless of industry, is essential. Injury Lawyers UK can help pinpoint where responsibility lies in the event of a crane-related accident. It may be due to the contractor or site manager, the crane manufacturer or even others on site. If you’re in the position of suffering personal injury, we will help seek the justice you deserve.

After all, a serious injury sustained on a construction site isn’t just an infringement on your personal safety. You also have the mental trauma to overcome should there be significant hurt caused, the potential loss of earnings through being unable to work while recovering from the injury, and even the difficulty of seeking re-employment which may be limited to the lasting effects of your accident.

We don’t believe in a blame culture when it comes to personal injury, but we do believe in your entitlement to what’s just and what’s fair. In the event of a crane-related accident in the workplace, we want to help seek the compensation you – and your family – deserve.
