Employer / Subcontractor responsibility for your safety

Every working environment comes with its own specific set of risks and potential issues, and it is an employer's responsibility to put the right safety rules in place to ensure the security and wellbeing of staff.

If you work on a construction site and have been told to carry out a task involving a crane then your boss or team leader should be ensuring the following:

  • That you have been adequately trained to operate the machine
  • That your team have also been properly trained
  • That the crane is in safe and usable condition
  • That the machinery has been adequately serviced and maintained
  • That there has been an adequate risk assessment to guard you against any risks which may arise

Could you have a viable case?

If your injury can be linked to a lack of proper equipment, training or machinery maintenance then you could be entitled to make a claim which highlights negligence on the part of your employer or team leader at the place where you are working.

Our experienced and knowledgeable team will be able to give you honest and impartial advice about your case, including the likelihood of it being successful.

How much compensation will I get for a Crane Accident Injury?

The exact amount of compensation you will receive for your injury sustained in an accident involving a crane will be based on a number of factors and of course, every case is individual in its own way.

That being said, all injury claims are based on the evaluation of two elements to each claim:

  • General Damages - to compensate for the loss of amenity, pain & suffering
  • Special Damages - to compensate for financial losses or future costs incurred as a direct result of the injury

Our Accident at work Compensation Calculator will provide provisional guideline figures on how much compensation you may receive for the 'general damages' element of the final compensation award.
