Compensation for loss of limb injuries at work
You could be entitled to claim compensation for loss of limb injuries at work where your employer has been in breach of vital health and safety regulations and you have been the victim of negligence. If the injury was suffered in circumstances that was not your fault, or at least not fully your fault, with the blame on either a colleague or your company that you work for, that is when you could be eligible to pursue a case.
It is common for loss of limb injuries at work to occur in factories where employees have been injured due to machinery parts or when using dangerous equipment. It only takes one moment for somebody’s hand to become trapped in moving machinery to cause a serious injury, or for a limb to be exposed to cutting equipment or extreme heat/chemicals for such an injury to occur.
As expert injury lawyers, we will always need to assess the circumstances of what has happened to you to determine if we are able to represent you for a legal case on a No Win, No Fee basis. All you need to do is speak to our team for free, no-obligation legal advice here and we can let you know as quickly as possible if your claim is one that we can pursue for you.
A recent HSE prosecution
Loss of limb injuries at work are matters that the Health and Safety Executive (HSE) may prosecute companies for, given the severity and the permanence of what has happened.
In a recent publication, the HSE reportedly find a company £115,000 after an employee’s hand was cut off in a machine. It was reported that the employee’s hand was tragically caught in the chain drive of a box-making machine at a Wrexham factory, and the HSE established that the company in question was in breach of vital health and safety regulations. The HSE outlined in their publication the reasoning for their findings, which included employees reportedly bypassing safety measures with a lack of instruction and supervision in relation to preventing the machine from causing injuries.
It is understood that the chain caught the employee’s sleeve and he had to be pulled out from underneath the machine. In this case, the employee’s hand was reportedly reattached, but the nature of the injury will likely leave him with problems for the rest of his life.
