2. Knowing when you've had an accident

Have you been injured in a factory or warehouse accident?

From falls to burns to head injuries, there is a wide range of injuries that can take place in warehouses. Every employer has a duty of care to their staff. When this isn't met, and avoidable accidents occur, anyone who has been injured can claim compensation. This also applies to loved ones claiming on someone else's behalf.

What types of factory accidents can someone claim against?

The most common factory and warehouse accidents in Northern Ireland would be physical in nature. This includes slips, falls, and accidents involving equipment/machinery. For those in manufacturing, exposure to chemicals and other substances is common, too. There are related diseases that can prompt a claim, such as asbestosis and mesothelioma.
