Can I Claim For Lost Wages?
If you're suffering physical or psychological distress as a result of an accident at work, then a no win no fee compensation claim is, in our opinion, the very least you can expect. In years gone by workers were, frankly, expected to put up with dangerous conditions and the risk of accidents was seen as simply part of the job. Now, however, Health and Safety is seen as a vital part of any good employers' responsibility to their staff, and compensation claims should not be seen as a punishment for the employer, but rather as the very least that you can expect should your workplace allow safety standards to slip.
Obviously, no amount of money can truly make up for the pain and trauma of a work injury, but being compensated for the sheer inconvenience involved when a workplace injury causes you to take time off work can be the first step toward feeling better and getting over the accident.
At the most basic level there is the question of wages - you've been injured through no fault of your own, and, if this stops you working then you'll be losing earnings as well. That's why any no win no fee compensation claim over a workplace accident will feature an amount to compensate for lost wages. After all, it's not your fault that you've been injured, so why should you be out of pocket on top of everything else?
