Frequently Asked Questions:
What is an accident at work claim?
An accident at work claim is a type of personal injury claim for compensation that arises when someone is injured in an accident during the course of their employment. You can make a claim for not only for accidents that occurred on your work premises, but also for those that arose at work-related events, such as parties.
Am I eligible to bring an accident at work claim?
Your employer is legally obliged to take reasonable steps to keep you safe while at work. For example, they must ensure that any machinery you use is fit for purpose, supply you with appropriate protective clothing, and provide adequate health and safety training. If your employer fails in their duty and you suffer harm as a result, you may be eligible to bring an accident at work claim against them.
Do I need to be a permanent full-time worker to bring a claim?
ed a permanent or a full-time worker to bring a claim. Employers still have a duty of care towards you and even if you are a temporary worker, on a zero-hours contract or if you have not been working there for very long you are still entitled to make a claim for compensation if you are injured because of negligence or lack of care.
How long will an accident at work compensation claim take?
The length of time your claim will take depends on a number of factors, including whether your employer’s insurer admits liability and the severity of your injuries. If you have been badly injured, then your claim may take longer as we will need to ensure you are fully compensated for any future losses. Medical experts will want to assess your recovery over time and we will claim for any loss of income and care costs that you may incur in the future.
Can I still make a compensation claim if the accident was partly my fault?
Even if the accident was partly your fault, if someone else contributed to it, then you are still entitled to make a claim if your employer was negligent or breached their duty of care to you. The amount of compensation paid to you will be less than it would otherwise have been, to take into account your contribution to the incident.
How much will it cost to bring my accident at work claim?
No win, no fee arrangements aren’t allowed in Northern Ireland. However, you shouldn’t let worries about legal costs deter you from claiming the compensation you deserve.
The general rule in personal injury claims is that those responsible for the accident have to cover the innocent party’s legal costs. The upshot of this rule is that, provided you have a strong claim, your employer’s insurers will pay your legal costs, and you’ll receive 100% of your compensation.
Our accident at work solicitors, Belfast, will explain legal costs to you in more detail when we meet with you. We’ll devise a strategy that allows you to pursue your claim with minimal financial risk.
How much compensation will I receive?
Compensation in accident at work claims is based on the circumstances of the case.
The legal term for compensation is ‘damages’. Damages in accident at work cases are split into two types: Special and general.
Special damages make good any financial losses stemming from your accident at work. Common examples of special damages include medical expenses, loss of earnings, and travel costs.
General damages compensate you for the pain and suffering your injuries have caused. The amount you’ll receive depends on a number of factors, including the type of injury you sustained, how severe it was, and how it has impacted your daily life.
You can use our Personal Injury Calculator to get a feel for the general damages you can expect in your case.
These amounts are merely a starting point, though, and will be adjusted to reflect your circumstances. Our accident at work solicitors, Belfast, will value your claim after they have reviewed the evidence.
Can I be dismissed for bringing an accident at work claim?
Most employers take their legal duty to keep their employees safe very seriously, and it is extremely unlikely that they will penalise you in any way for making a claim against them. Employers in Northern Ireland are obliged to take out employer’s liability insurance, and your employer’s policy will cover the costs of any accident at work claim you bring.
In the unlikely event your employer was to dismiss you or treat you unfavourably for pursuing your legal rights, you could take them to an industrial tribunal.
Will I Need To Go To Court?
We are usually able to settle claims without the need to attend court. Our personal injury team are strong negotiators and will seek the best possible deal from your employer’s insurance company. In the event that the offers they make are not sufficient and your case goes to trial, you can be sure of robust representation.
“I came to Michael McGee on a whim and he and the team dealt with my case. I did not think I would get anything and I did not think a solicitor would even take the case on. My case was unusual and I was not sure if there was any point in pursuing it. I kept 100% of my compensation as well. I am really grateful to Michael, he provided a great service. I did not have to do anything and only visited the office a couple of times.”
