Warehouse & Factory Accident Claims Scotland

Every workplace, whether it is an office or a building site, has an element of risk. However, there are some working environments that are more dangerous than others.

Factories and warehouses tend to be some of the most dangerous workplaces. There are many potential hazards, including:

Trip hazards, caused by incorrectly storing equipment.
Falling objects, if things are stored at height.
Machinery and vehicles used to move and process items.

Employers have a duty of care towards their staff. They must ensure that adequate training is given, that this is regularly reviewed and updated and that all steps are taken to reduce risks.

If they fail to do this, they could be open to factory accident claims.

Making a factory or warehouse accident claim

At Jones Whyte, we understand you may be apprehensive about making a claim against your current employer.

However, if you have been injured in a factory accident, compensation claims can help ensure that lessons are learned, processes improved and no one suffers in the same way in the future.

Making warehouse or factory accident compensation claims works in much the same way as any other personal injury claim.

We will begin by taking your statement. This helps to establish exactly what happened and to show how the employer was negligent.

We will then begin gathering supporting evidence. This can include:

Medical reports.
Witness statements.
CCTV footage (if available).

While we work through your warehouse accident claim, we will also help you access immediate medical care. This can include physiotherapy, which will aid your recovery from injury.

Very few personal injury claims go to court. The vast majority are settled without the need for court action. If court action is necessary, Jones Whyte will be there to support you throughout.

Other personal injury claims

While factory and warehouse accident claims may be commonplace, simply because of the nature of the industry, Jones Whyte has experience dealing with many different types of personal injury claims.

These include:

If your employer has failed to manage risk, and you have been injured as a result, then you deserve to make a personal injury claim.

At Jones Whyte, we will work to get you all the compensation you deserve.
