Personal Protective Equipment Injury (PPE) Claims

Can I claim for a Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) Injury?

If your accident is the result of someone else’s negligence, we could help you claim compensation for your injury.

Your employer has a duty to protect your safety and that of your co-workers by following the guidelines set by the Health and Safety Executive. This includes providing you with the necessary Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) you need to perform your duties.

Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) is used in many different settings from hospitals, care homes and clinics, food production facilities, factories and buildings sites and widely used by the military, police forces, firefighters, prison staff and many more settings.

Not having the right equipment can have devastating consequences.

The use of Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) can be to protect workers from dangers in the workplace which can be as simple as knee pads or safety boots, to ear defenders, riot helmets and shields, to face masks in a hospital or breathing equipment.

If your employer has failed to provide sufficient, adequate and effective PPE and you have been hurt as a direct result of that failure, then they could be responsible and you may be able to make a No Win No Fee claim.

How much will my workplace injury claim be worth?

As with most other personal injury claims there is no set rule for how much compensation you might receive for an injury sustained whilst aboard.

The amount of settlement will depend on the extent of your injuries, how it has impacted your life and how much time a full recovery will take.

However, in addition to damages for any injury, pain and suffering, you may also be able to claim for any loss of earnings as well as for the cost of any medical treatment or rehabilitation that may be required and any additional transport costs.

Our personal injury solicitors are very experienced in this area, and will aim to get you the maximum compensation available for your injury and we will give you an indication of the likely settlement once we have evaluated your claim.
