Accidents at work
IQ Law is also committed to claims arising from accidents in the workplace, such as the construction industry, in a factory, or in an office and other general places of work. Thousands of people suffer terrible injuries in the workplace each year in the UK, the circumstances surrounding the injury may have been caused by a fellow employee, but more often because the employer has breached legislation covering health and safety at work, some of those injuries may be so severe that they cause long term disabilities changing the lives of those involved and their families for ever.

- INJURIES SUFFERED FROM LIFTING OR MANUAL HANDLING
- CONSTRUCTION INDUSTRY INJURIES
- SLIPS AND TRIPS CAUSED BY UNEVEN OR WET SURFACES
- DEFECTIVE OR DANGEROUS MACHINERY
- VIOLENT ATTACKS IN THE WORKPLACE
- EXPOSURE TO HARMFUL MATERIALS OR SUBSTANCES
- FALLS OR FALLING MATERIALS
