Frequently asked questions

Who do I make a claim against?

You will make a claim against your employer if you have sustained an injury in an accident at work. But don’t be put off claiming as a result of this – your employer cannot dismiss you for making a claim.

All businesses by law must have insurance that covers them for employee accidents in the workplace. If you win your work injury claim, it is not your employer who pays - the insurance company will pay your compensation.

By making an accident at work claim, you also highlight these dangers, ensuring that someone else will not be injured in the same way.
