Work Accident Cases

A Personal injury claim due to an accident at work arises from an incident which occurs during the course of employment causing personal injury to you as an employee. An employer is legally obliged to take reasonable steps to protect the safety of his employees. For example, your employer has a duty to: Provide a safe place of work; Provide a safe system of work; Employ competent staff; and Provide proper equipment.
