Industrial Disease
Industrial Disease Compensation Claims
Industrial disease is a category that is similar to 'accidents at work' the differences being that Industrial Disease is not a one off injury, it is usually an injury sustained over a period of time. This injury will have been caused by the work they were doing, the materials they worked with or the general working environment.
Industrial Disease Compensation
Claims are often made when a worker has been exposed to dangerous substances, a dangerous workplace system and/or high levels of noise which leave the worker suffering from either short or long term illnesses. Some examples of claims which our personal injury solicitors have handled include:
- Tendonitis
- Asbestosis
- Carpal Tunnel Syndrome
- Chronic Bronchitis
- Dermatitis
- Vibration White Finger
- Industrial Deafness
- Silicosis
- RSI
- Asthma
The claimant may have finished working for a company before they felt the effects of an industrial disease. This is because it can often be a long time after initial exposure that the effects of an industrial disease can take effect. This is not unusual and our solicitors are experienced in handling many claims of this nature.
