Finger injury at work compensation claims solicitors
If you are involved in an incident at work that causes a significant finger injury and it was someone else’s fault, you may be able to receive compensation for your finger injury at work. Some finger injuries can be serious and can have a big impact on your ability to work or carry out normal daily activities at home or elsewhere. It might be that you make a full recovery from your finger injury in time, or the damage caused might be permanent such as a cut off finger or fingertip amputation.
Depending on the circumstances involved, your employer could be liable for your injury and therefore you may be able to make a finger injury at work compensation claim for what has happened to you. It’s a legal responsibility for your employer to assess potential workplace risks and hazards and to put in place a health and safety plan to help minimise these. This may include things that could help with preventing finger injuries at work. Failing to do this could be considered negligence and if you are injured as a result, you may be eligible to claim compensation. Finger injuries that you can get compensation for may include a severely cut finger at work, broken finger at work, or even losing a finger at work or a thumb injury.
You might be wondering, “can I get sacked for a finger injury at work?” and be unsure whether making a claim against your employer will put your job at risk. However, there are legal protections for employees making a legitimate claim against a negligent employer which means they cannot be sacked for doing so. Get in touch with our specialist team to find out more about claiming compensation for hand and finger injuries at work by calling 0161 696 6235.
