Work Place Injury

Workplace injury claims can result in lengthy court proceedings if not handled properly. When you are the victim of a workplace injury that is the result of negligence on the part of your employer, you are eligible to lodge a claim to seek compensation for your losses. This can include both financial and non-financial losses incurred. Claim Solutions Scotland Ltd can help you gather the necessary evidence you need and help you to lodge your claim in the most effective way possible.

Common Types of Work Place Injuries
Injuries The type of work you do can have a significant effect on the amount of risk you are exposed to while on the job. Obviously, jobs that are more dangerous yield more injuries but that doesn’t necessarily mean the injuries are more severe. A recent study put forth by the Health and Safety Executive or HSE claims that 95% of serious slips and trips result in broken bones. Injuries vary depending on your profession. Your employer has a legal obligation to notify you of the risks involved in doing your job and how to mitigate these risks through proper safety training and precautionary measures. Below are some of the more common workplace injuries encountered in Scotland.

  • Slip or trip claims
  • Burns or scalds
  • Claims relating to hazardous substances
  • Fall from height claims
  • Health and Safety breach-related claims
  • Claims relating to dangerous machinery
  • Injuries arising from inadequate training
  • Manual handling incidents
  • RSI, vibration white finger, and hand-arm vibration syndrome-related claims

How Long Do I Have to Lodge My Workplace Injury Claim?
You must lodge your claim no later than 3 years from the date of your injury. After three years you will no longer be able to lodge a claim as this is the statue of limitations for your injuries. It is worth mentioning that the longer you wait to lodge your claim, the more difficult your compensation will be to receive. Insurers are not keen on paying out large amounts of their profits to claimants and they will go to great extent to try and limit these losses in any way possible. This can mean your injuries are going to be contested. This is especially the case when discussing severe injuries that were not immediately reported at the time of the accident.

Claim Solutions Scotland Ltd understand how important securing compensation is for the injured party and we take the necessary step to ensure you stay one move ahead of the greedy insurance companies who will be working their hardest to limit the number of funds you get access to. Below are some of the ways compensation can help you.

  • Medical Bills
  • Future Medical Bills
  • Loss of Physical Capacity
  • Damaged Property
  • Pain and Suffering

What If I am not Sure What Caused My Accident?
Claims Solutions Scotland Ltd can provide you with a claim specialist who can help you gather the necessary evidence needed to secure compensation for your injuries. In many instances, the injured party is unaware of the true cause of their injury or is injured so severely they are unable to gather the necessary evidence to prove they are not at fault for the accident. A claim specialist can gather this relevant information and put it forward in a concise and easily understood manner that will help further your compensation claim when in court.

What if I am Partly Responsible for My Accident?
If you are partly responsible for your accident, you may still seek compensation. The court will examine the exact circumstances of your accident and then determine the amount of fault you carry. This percentage will then be subtracted from your total compensation accordingly. This can give you access to the financial assistance you may need to secure the best possible medical care for your injuries. If it is determined that you hold all the fault for your accident your claim will be denied.

How is My Workplace Injury Compensation Determined?
Claim Solutions Scotland Ltd will work on your behalf including negotiating with your employer’s insurer to get you the compensation you are seeking. If no agreement is made during these negotiations then your compensation level will be determined by the court once they examine the total amount of losses you have incurred as a result of your injuries. General Damages, or non-financial losses, must be determined by referencing the JSB, or Judicial Studies Board. Here minimum and maximum compensation amounts are listed based on the severity of your injuries.

How Long Will My Claim Take?
The answer to this question varies greatly depending on the unique circumstances surrounding your workplace injury. You can receive compensation for your damages in as little as a few months when no party contests the fault or injuries you sustained. Severe injuries can result in longer court proceedings. Insurance companies are known for trying everything in their power to limit their losses paid to claimants.

Why a Claim Specialist is the Right Move?

Our expert team has years of experience navigating the work injury claims process. Don’t trust your claim to just anyone.
