Worried About Claiming Against Your Employer?
It’s the reason most people never make a claim they were entitled to. Here’s what actually happens.
You cannot be sacked for it
Dismissing you for bringing an honest injury claim is automatically unfair dismissal — and would give you a second, separate claim. In practice, employers hand the matter straight to their insurer.
Your employer doesn't pay
Employers' Liability insurance is a legal requirement in the UK. The insurer investigates the claim, defends it and pays any compensation. Your employer isn't out of pocket.
You can claim after leaving
You don't have to still work there. As long as the accident happened within the last three years, you can claim — including if the business has since closed down.
Partly your fault? Still claim
Very few accidents are entirely one-sided. If you were partly responsible, your compensation is reduced to reflect that share — it isn't refused outright.
Agency and zero-hours workers count
Agency staff, subcontractors, temporary and zero-hours workers are all owed a duty of care on site. So are visitors and delivery drivers.
No accident book entry? It's fine
An accident book or RIDDOR entry helps, but plenty of successful claims start without one. Witnesses, photos, messages and medical records all build the picture.

Can You Claim for An Accident at Work?
If your employer’s negligence caused or contributed to your injury, you can almost certainly make a claim.
Your employer has legal duties towards you under the Health and Safety at Work etc. Act 1974 and the regulations that sit beneath it — including proper training for lifting and carrying, safe and maintained equipment, safe access when working at height, and free, suitable protective equipment.
When one of those duties is breached and you get hurt as a result, you are entitled to claim for the injury itself and for what it has cost you.
You normally have three years from the date of the accident. If your injury developed over time, the three years can instead run from the date you found out it was caused by your work. Different rules apply if you were under 18 at the time.
Our team will tell you honestly whether your claim has a realistic chance of succeeding — and will tell you if it doesn’t.
