This could cover a wide range of accidents from working in an office to working on the factory floor when something has happened to you that your employer should or could have done something about to have avoided you from being injured.
For instance you could have been boiling the kettle to make a cup of tea but because of a fault with the kettle you could have been electrocuted.
Alternatively you could have tripped over loose computer wiring and fallen and injured yourself.
Or you could have been using machinery to make or cut something and as a result of a fault with it you could have consequently been injured.
There are so many different other ways of being injured at work that the examples quoted above are just a mere handful. There are strict guidelines for employers to comply with in order to keep a place of work safe. Hence there is every chance that if you have been injured during the course of your employment then you may in fact have a valid claim for compensation.
