Accidents at Work
Accidents at work can be the result of anything such as a lack of training, faulty equipment or exposure to dangerous substances.
Even if you are a casual worker or self-employed under the law you may be considered an employee, thereby giving you the same rights as other employees.
We know all too well that having a work related accident can have serious consequences for you and your loved ones.
