Liability Risk and Insurance
Carpal Tunnel Syndrome cases won
A judgment by the Swansea County Court has paved the way for train drivers across Britain to claim compensation for an industrial
injury that leaves their hands permanently disabled. The decision initially affects three members of ASLEF, the train drivers’
union, who contracted Carpal Tunnel Syndrome (CTS), but it is thought to have wide implications for train drivers throughout
the UK.
