Liability Risk and Insurance
Hand injury compensation of £25,000
A man has received £25,000 in compensation after suffering a hand injury in a workplace accident. He needed surgery on his
hand after a tendon was severed during the accident. On the day of the accident he was taking a tractor apart for shipping.
He needed to use a type of hammer for part of the job, but the correct tool hadn’t been supplied. Despite complaining he was
told to carry on the job so they could get the tractor loaded.
