Can I Make a Stress at Work Compensation Claim?

The Health ans Safety Executive (HSE) has reported that each year over 11 million working days are lost due to stress at work. Cases of workplace stress are becoming increasingly common and can cost businesses a significant amount of money. Demands by employers should be matched to an employee's skills and knowledge. If you are given strict or unrealistic tasks and deadlines but don't believe you have the necessary skills to achieve tasks, you may experience workplace stress.

It is expected that most jobs will come with some level of workplace stress, however if you feel you are under undue levels of stress, you may be entitled to make a compensation claim.In order to make a successful claim for stress at work, it is vital that you gather the necessary proof of negligence.

Stress at work can be caused by a number of factors such as:

Bullying/harassment
Sexual harassment
Excessive workloads
Your employer failing to understand your mental health issues
It is important that you visit your GP who will be able to provide medical clarification as to whether or not you are indeed suffering from work-related stress. While obtaining medical clarification is important in building a stress at work case, it may also be necessary for you to provide other information.

If possible, you should attempt to provide evidence which also supports your claim of workplace stress such as examples of tasks you were given that you lack the necessary experience to undertake, any correspondence between you and your colleagues/employer which has contributed to workplace stress and examples if there are any other staff members who are also experiencing any stress-related issues due to work. Maintaining a diary of your stress-related experiences at work may also be beneficial.

If you think you may be suffering from stress caused by your work environment but are unsure whether or not you are entitled to make a claim, contact UK Claim Line today and we can put you in touch with experienced solicitor who can support you in making a no win no fee

When you work for a living,

Your employer doesn’t simply have to pay you in return for your efforts.

They also have to ensure that the environment in which you work is as safe as possible.

If they fail to do so then you’ve been let down badly and if, as a consequence, you become injured or ill, then you’ve every right to think about claiming compensation.

Your employer has a legal duty to protect you while you work, enshrined in legislation such as the Workplace (Health, Safety and Welfare) Regulations 1992 and if they fail in this duty then it can often prove disastrous.

An accident at work could be anything from a fairly minor brush with unsafe equipment up to serious personal injury, but the basic building blocks of a successful compensation case remain the same:

If you have had an accident at work, whether you work in construction or are a 9-5 office worker, you may have the right to claim compensation. Workers often feel that putting in a claim against their employer can jeopardise their job security, but the truth is that the vast majority of employers are more than willing to ensure you get the compensation you deserve.

Having access to a panel of qualified time served solicitors who have experience in varying fields enables us to place you with someone who has experience specific to your claim circumstances.

THE FACTS

THE MONEY DOESN’T COME OUT OF YOUR EMPLOYERS POCKET –

All employers and businesses are legally required to have liability insurance, which provides financial cover if there is an accident or property damage. This means if you make an accident at work claim against your employers, any compensation is paid by their insurance company.

YOUR JOB IS SAFE IF YOU MAKE A CLAIM –

Making a claim against your employer will not affect your chances of getting a job in the future. There is legislation in place to protect workers who have been injured in an accident at work, and this includes protection from discrimination.

WE GET YOUR LOSS OF EARNINGS BACK –

If your claim is successful, you will receive payment for lost earnings. Any compensation awarded will include something known as “special damages”, which covers any expenses incurred as a result of your injury – anything from medical costs, to travel expenses or loss of earnings.
