Accidents At Work

Work Accident Claims Ireland

A workplace accident is an accident that occurs unexpectedly while you are working and results in an injury or illness.

Accidents can happen in any type of workplace, such as an office, a construction site, a farm or a factory. Time off work or specialist medical treatment may be needed if serious injuries  are caused by an accident at work. Loss of wages or costs of medical treatment may have a financial impact, as well as any physical or emotional impact that an injury can cause.

Employers in Ireland have a particular duty towards their Employees. They are obliged by law to provide a safe place of work, a safe system of work and ensure that all Employees are correctly trained. Employers should provide regular training to update employee skills & ensure correct safety procedures are enforced.  

If you have been injured in a workplace accident, you should seek the right support early on to help you recover. If you would like to make a work accident claim in Ireland please get in touch.
