Industrial diseases often result from exposure to a substance or an unsafe working practise over a period of years. Claims often involve the detailed investigation of an individual’s working history.
Many industrial disease claimants are unaware that their health problems relate to their occupation. For example, people who have worked with vibrating tools may suffer numbness, pins & needles, and reduced dexterity of the fingers and hands without understanding the connection with their occupation.
Our personal injury lawyers have successfully handled substantial civil actions for industrial disease and workplace illness in cases involving:
- vibration white finger
- repetitive strain injury
- respiratory diseases
- skin diseases
- industrial deafness/tinnitus
The Health and Safety Executive (HSE) estimate that approximately three thousand workers die each year as a result of exposure to asbestos products.
