Building Site Injury Claims
If you have suffered injuries on a building site through no fault of your own, you may be eligible to make building site injury claims. Building and construction sites are potentially dangerous places and it is the duty of the employer to ensure that workers are protected from all risks of accidents whilst on the site. Every employer must make sure that all risks of accidents and injuries are minimised and it is their responsibility to carry out risk assessments and take reasonable steps to reduce the potential risks. The duty of employers also includes providing the workers with adequate safety equipment and training to carry out their tasks safely.
In the UK, large companies are required to take out insurance to cover claims made for personal injuries sustained whilst at work. If you have suffered any injuries at work due to the negligence of the employer or a fellow co-worker, you must make sure that details of the accident are recorded in the accident book. Moreover, if possible, you must also try to take pictures of the cause of the accident and also take down contact details of witnesses. It is also important for you to get your injuries examined in a hospital or by a G.P.
