Wine waiter compensated for slip

A wine waiter who slipped while working at a five star hotel has received £9,000 in compensation. He was walking through the hotel’s kitchen with a bottle of wine and liqueurs on a tray when he slipped on grease on the floor. He suffered from soft tissue damage to his foot and still suffers from pain. As a result he was off work for three months and can now only work for short periods of time. The hotel accepted liability for the accident.
