Compensation for shoulder injury

A man who damaged his shoulder in a workplace accident has received compensation despite his employers going into administration. He received £3,500 after injuring his right shoulder while working as a caster. The firm he worked for was a precision engineer for the car manufacturing industry making carburettors and pistons. It went into administration in August 2006 and is still being wound up. His accident happened in October 2006 just a few months before the staff were made redundant.
