Types of Workplace Accident Claims We Handle 

Workplace accidents come in many forms, each with its own complexities. At GHP Legal, we specialise in a broad range of claims, including: 

We take time to understand your particular circumstances, how the accident happened, and how your life is affected now and in the years ahead, so your claim fully reflects your loss. 

Common Types of Workplace Accident Claims 

Construction Site Accident Claims 

Worksites often involve high-risk environments , scaffolding, heavy machinery, heights, tools, unstable surfaces. Injuries can range from falls and fractures to serious trauma. We build strong claims taking into account health & safety rules, site management responsibilities, and your long-term needs. 

Manual Handling and Lifting Claims 

Tasks that involve lifting, carrying or moving heavy loads improperly can lead to back injuries, muscle strain, joint damage, and chronic pain. Employers must provide training, equipment, and supervision — if they fail, we hold them accountable. 

Slips, Trips and Falls at Work 

Slips and trips are among the most frequent workplace accidents — wet floors, cluttered walkways, loose cables, uneven surfaces. Even seemingly “minor” trips can cause serious harm, such as fractures or head injuries. You should not have to suffer because safety was neglected. 

Crush Injury Claims 

Crush injuries occur when parts of the body are trapped, compressed, or pressed by machinery, falling objects, or structural elements. These injuries may involve fractures, amputation, nerve damage, or internal harm. We ensure your claim accounts for medical care, rehabilitation and long-term consequences. 

Factory / Industrial Accidents 

Factories and industrial sites bring unique hazards: heavy machinery, chemicals, noise, moving parts, conveyors, wiring faults. If safety procedures or training were inadequate, and you were injured, we can pursue a strong workplace accident claim. 

Electric Shock / Electrocution Injury Claims 

Electrical injuries can be immediate and severe, burns, cardiac arrest, nerve damage. They often result from faulty wiring, lack of maintenance, or insufficient training. We know how to trace responsibility and demand full reparations. 

Repetitive Strain / Overuse Injuries 

Work that involves repeated movements, typing, lifting, operating tools, can lead to conditions like tendonitis, carpal tunnel syndrome, or chronic joint pain. These injuries may develop over months or years. We help prove the connection to your work and quantify the impact. 

Occupational Disease / Illness Claims 

Some harm doesn’t appear overnight, exposure to chemicals, dust, fumes, noise, or ergonomic stress can cause conditions such as respiratory disease, hearing loss, vibration white finger, or musculoskeletal disease. We build claims to cover medical treatment, loss of function, and life adjustments. 

Understanding Your Right to Compensation for Workplace Accidents 

When you are injured at work due to negligence, lack of training, faulty equipment, or unsafe practices, you may have the right to compensation. But securing what you deserve is rarely simple. 

You may claim damages for all relevant losses, including: 

You typically have three years from the date of your accident (or from when you discover your injury) to issue a claim. In some cases, shorter or longer time limits may apply. Acting promptly helps preserve evidence and strengthens your position.
