You may think that office accidents are rare given that offices are secure areas. Even though it is already a given that occupational accidents do happen in dangerous locations, such as building sites and warehouse, it doesn’t change the reality that mishaps can also take place in offices. Annually there are roughly thousands of workers who face injuries while doing work at the workplace.
Injuries at work area
Office places are no exceptions to risks. Some causes of slips, falls, or trips are those loose cables, objects that aren’t correctly organized and messy work station. Wet floors, poorly maintained paths, cark parks, and loose carpets as well unkempt storage areas, cupboards and shelves are the other reasons for work-related injuries.
Your employer’s obligation to minimise office accidents
In terms of protecting their staff security, the employer is the one which must be taking the full accountability. Therefore, looking after you, to ensure that you are working at an accident-free area, is their duty. You are given with the right of making a claim against them if you have experienced any neck pain because you have a non-ergonomic workstation or if your computer mouse doesn’t have a wrist pad which caused you to have RSI injuries. Likewise if you experienced a head injury given that you walked into a filing cabinet drawer or cupboard that was left open by someone else, slipped over due to inadequate lighting, received an electric shock from untested equipment or encountered a back injury because you were asked to lift or move something which was too heavy. Making sure that all of these mishaps will never happen is a duty that your employer should guarantee. If your employer’s failure is one of the underlying factors that the accident occurred, then you can declare compensation for the injuries that you have incurred.
