HGV Driver awarded £13,125 after an Accident at Work

Hampson Hughes Solicitors have settled an Accident at Work claim, resulting in £13,125 compensation.

Our client, a HGV Driver had pulled his truck into the concrete yard at his workplace. He noticed that the yard was full of ‘slurry’ as the machine that usually pumps out the slurry as normal had broken.

Our client proceeded to take the paperwork over to the office, but the company failed to take the appropriate measures to make the site safe, resulting in our client slipping over in the slurry. He landed on his back and was stuck for over an hour until a colleague found him and rang an ambulance.

As a result of the incident, the client suffered injuries to his shoulders, back, neck, left hip and left knee.

A total of £13,125 was awarded to the client.
