When is an Industrial Accident?

By: Chhabra

An industrial accident can be simply defined as an accident, usually resulting in serious injury, which occurs at a work site, a construction site or a factory floor for example. If you or someone you know suffers an industrial accident, which leaves them unable to continue with their job they may be entitled to a particular benefit called the industrial injuries disablement benefit, defined as the benefit awarded if there is an incident or a series of incidents in the workplace, which weren’t deliberate and result in a personal injury.

Should an industrial accident happen the first thing to do is report the incident to your boss or someone in authority in your workplace. However if the injury is serious then the recipient should seek medical help immediately and record what happened later. There should be an accident book where all the details should be recorded, if there isn’t then you should write down the details and give them to whoever is in charge, if you can’t write them down get somebody else to do it for you. Once you have recorded what happened you should seek medical attention as soon as possible.

Should the accident result in the worker being unable to continue to work or to miss time at work to recover then they may be entitled to compensation or benefits, for missed earnings and also future earnings. If you feel you have suffered an industrial accident and you deserve reparations then you should contact a legal professional and ask their advice on your situation and view past case studies.
