Employee Compensation:

• Where to Begin

Employees who are injured at work have every right to file for employee compensation. The legal system has provided a way for people to get the reimbursement they need for the losses suffered as a result of a work related injury. Employers must be held accountable to provide a safe work environment so that the workplace can become a safe place for future workers to make a living.

You may wonder how you can afford to get legal representation. Fortunately, there are provisions for people to have their legal fees paid at the end of the legal proceedings instead of forcing the injured party to pay a retainer fee at the beginning and waiting for an indefinite period of time to collect their compensation. This arrangement is called 'no win no fee'.

Employer negligence can cause serious work accident injuries

Everything from faulty equipment to improper training can cause the blame of injury to be pinned onto the employer. The following examples will give you an idea of the kinds of behaviours that can cause accidents:

• a) An employee working with a dangerous, acidic chemical should be provided with proper protective clothing and goggles. It is also imperative that the employee is fully trained on the safe handling of the chemical. The chemical must be properly stored and not come in contact with another chemical that it can have a dangerous reaction with.
• b) An employee walking on an uneven floor in a poorly lit room could fall and hurt themselves. An employer is required to provide a safe environment including safe walkways, lighting, ventilation and other environmental factors.
• c) Any employee operating a piece of equipment should expect that it is properly maintained. If someone is injured because of equipment malfunctions due to negligence, they should be aware of the possibility of compensation.

Of course, no one can say that a specific situation will warrant filing a claim until the details have been thoroughly reviewed by a lawyer. The point is that if you think you may have a workers compensation claim because of an accident at work, you have every right to have your case reviewed by an experienced and competent attorney to see if you have the chance to receive reimbursement for your work related injuries.

Choose a solicitor through a reputable company or by a referral through friends and family. Most solicitors give free consultations to review your case. If they agree to take your case they will ask you questions about the details surrounding your injury. Be sure to answer all questions with honesty and clarity so that your attorney will be able to give you a clear idea about the validity of your case and so that they will be well armed to provide you with exceptional representation. Provide any documentation or evidence you have, such as photographs of the scene or of the injury or damages. If you have kept a journal or daily report of your process of recovery, it may be very useful for your attorney.

Choose a lawyer who will represent you and will have your best interest. Seeing that he will be well equipped to help you achieve the best employee compensation possible.
