Trolley / Stock Cage Wheel Gets Caught – Advice from The Injury Lawyers

Trolleys and stock cages are a common piece of work equipment in many roles and workplaces. There is a duty for employers to take reasonable steps to make sure that trolleys and cages are maintained and suitable for use under The Provision and Use of Work Equipment Regulations 1992.
