What are the Most Common Causes of Slips, Trips & Falls?
Tripping accidents commonly happen outside as a result of faulty, damaged and uneven paving and can also be caused be tripping over objects sticking out of the ground. Tripping accidents can also happen indoors as a result of tripping over objects that should not be there as well as walkways being blocked, carpets and rugs that have been improperly fitted, uneven flooring and loose wires. Likewise, the causes of falling accidents are many and varied.
Other workers at risk of suffering accidents at work include window cleaners, roofers and those working in supermarkets and warehouses where they are also sometimes required to work from height to put things on high up shelves. Falling accidents can also happen outside working environments, and as long as someone else was to blame, you could be eligible to make a fall compensation claim.
What are the Injuries Associated with Slips, Trips & Falls?
As they involve the body falling to the ground, broken and fractured bone injuries, ankle injuries and back injuries are most commonly associated with slip, trip and fall accidents. As every case is different, victims will suffer many different injuries and combinations of injuries and to very different degrees of severity. A very small proportion of injuries resulting from slips, trips and falls fall within the extremely serious category and includes such injuries as a medium to long-term loss of mobility, brain damage and even fatalities.
I Was Injured in a Slip, Trip or Fall at Work – Can I Claim Compensation?
If your accident happened while you were at work, you could make a work accident compensation claim as it is the primary duty of your employer to ensure that you are safe at work. It is also your employer’s responsibility to specifically ensure that your workplace complies with current health and safety legislation. As such, they should do things such as signposting wet floors; gathering electrical cables safely and making sure that all walkways are clear and free of obstructions and all stairways are well lit.
Employers should also ensure that their workforce is adequately trained to carry out their duties safely to ensure that the risk of accidents occurring is reduced to negligible levels and they must also ensure that their workforce is capable of working safely for that same reason. If employers fail to fulfil basic obligations such as these, they could be liable to pay damages to the employee or employees injured in trip, slip and fall accidents at work.
What To Do if You are injured in a Slip, Trip or Fall
When you are the injured person in a slip, trip or fall that wasn’t your fault, you could well be eligible for compensation. However, to give yourself the best chance of your personal injury claim being successful, it is important to gather as much evidence as possible.
Document your Accident
The first thing to do is report your accident to someone and get it documented. If your fall occurs at the premises of a business make sure it is recorded in the accident book. It is important to make sure there is a record of the accident if you intend to make a claim for compensation. Alternatively if you are injured after a slip or fall because of say a damaged footpath make sure you call the local council and report the incident.
Take Photos of the Area
It is also important to take photos of the area and if possible get statements or names and addresses off witnesses who saw your fall. You should then ensure you get medical treatment for your injuries however minor they may seem. Quite often what seems like a minor injury will worsen over time and cause you serious problems. If you don’t record your injuries at the time it may adversely affect your claim for compensation.
Contact a Personal Injury Solicitor
