If you or someone close to you works in a factory, you will know that it can sometimes be a particularly challenging environment to work in. By nature, factories are normally vast and full of machinery and equipment.
Added to that, every factory will be run according to different policies and procedures and so the risk of an accident occurring for a contractor who visits the factory irregularly, such as an electrician or plumber, can be high. Employees working in the factory are not immune from an accident or incident occurring too, even though they should be made aware of the procedures put in place by their employer.
Examples of Factory Accidents can include falling from a ladder or from height in the factory, tripping or falling due to obstructions in the working area or walkways or lifting injuries due to not being trained correctly or being asked to carry something awkward or heavier than you may have thought it was. It may be that your employer has been negligent in an issue which has then caused the accident itself.
What may I be entitled to if I have been involved in a Factory Accident?
The dedicated team of solicitors at T G Baynes work hard to get you the compensation you are entitled to. It is understandable that whilst no amount of money will relieve the hurt and pain of the injuries you received from being involved in a Factory Accident, any settlement you receive can go towards paying any private medical bills you may have incurred, expenses you’ve gathered from going to and from hospital appointments as a result of your accident, as well as any loss of earnings, both in the past and in the future.
Due to the unique nature of Factory Accident claims, it is hard to give an exact figure of what you may be entitled to, but your T G Baynes solicitor will be able to give you further information as your claim progresses.
