Many people hesitate to make a work accident injury claim as they do not realise that their employer is covered by insurance to protect them in such events.

Although tripping over is widely considered as a human error or bad judgement, there are many occasions where a slip or trip at work could easily be avoided. Negligent actions of the employer or fellow employees, e.g. failing to clean up a spillage on a hard floor, can mean that a worker can unexpectedly suffer a nasty accident because of someone else.
Injuries caused by workplace slips, trips and falls can range from bruising to sprains and broken bones. Certain injuries can result in a disruption to everyday life. Compensation for slips and trips can help pay for loss of earnings and/or medical treatment following an accident that wasn’t your fault.
Here at PIC Claim we understand the devastating effect workplace accidents like slips, trips and falls can have on everyday life. This is why we work hard to ensure the full amount of compensation is received for our claimants to help them get back to normal as soon as possible. Our personal injury claim solicitors are some of the best in the industry and have years of experience helping people recover compensation for their losses.
