Why “Proof Wins Cases” Matters
When it comes to making an accident at work claim, nothing matters more than evidence. A solid case can mean the difference between getting compensation or walking away empty-handed. That’s why, at Claim Today, we tell every client: proof is your power.
Whether you slipped on a wet floor, were hit by falling equipment, or injured lifting heavy loads, we help you document every detail.
Your Legal Rights After a Workplace Injury
Under UK law, all workers, including agency, zero-hour, and migrant employees, have the right to make a claim if injured at work due to someone else’s negligence. Employers have a legal duty to protect you with proper training, safe equipment, and risk assessments.
Common claim types include:
- Slips, trips, and falls
- Machinery accidents
- Lifting injuries
- Construction site accidents
If your employer failed to keep you safe, you may be entitled to compensation.
What You Need to Prove
1. Medical Records
Always visit a doctor or hospital after an injury. These records are crucial.
2. Incident Report
Ensure your workplace logs the accident in the official report book.
3. Witness Statements
Names and details of any co-workers who saw the incident will strengthen your case.
4. Photographic Evidence
Take photos of the injury, hazard, or faulty equipment.
5. Financial Records
Keep receipts of any lost income, travel, or medical expenses.
Step-by-Step: Building Your Accident at Work Claim
Step 1: Get Medical Help
This should be immediate. It shows the injury was serious and prevents complications.
Step 2: Inform Your Employer
By law, your employer must record the incident.
Step 3: Speak to a Specialist
A no win no fee solicitor will assess your case and guide you through every stage. You don’t pay unless your claim wins.

In most UK claims, you must file within 3 years of the accident. Don’t delay.
