    Health and safety measures

    The workplace is the most likely setting in which you will have a fall from a height. Because of this, the Health and Safety Executive has rigorous regulations in place which employers must abide by in order to prevent this kind of accident.

    Common fall from height claims come about because there has been defective work equipment in the form of scaffolding; falls from ladders; falling with no harnesses used; falling from machinery and falling from unsafe roofs. Within the construction industry, falling from height is a common risk.

    Employers have a duty to protect you from falls

    Every employer is bound by the law to provide a safe working environment for its staff. There have to be certain health risk assessments and recordings in accident books to help monitor the safety of the working environment. Legally your employer must also have insurance.

    Employers sometimes fail to comply with the regulations set out by the HSE. If you have fallen from a height and experienced injuries as a result of the negligence of your employer then you may be able to file for compensation.

    AMOUNT OF COMPENSATION in Fall From Height Compensation Claims

    All personal injury cases are unique and so the amount of compensation that is awarded in each case is also unique. The amount of compensation that is awarded is determined by looking at two distinct factors – general damages and special damages.

    GENERAL DAMAGES

    The pain and suffering that your injuries have caused is the main factor that is used to determine how much compensation you are owed.

    SPECIAL DAMAGES

    However, compensation also takes into account any financial losses that you might have suffered as a result of your injuries, such as a loss of earnings due to being unable to return to work.
