Falling Object Accident Claims
Being hit by a falling object can often result in very serious injuries, and unfortunately some of those injuries can be fatal. Such accidents can often be easily avoided. Here at The Claims Partnership, we take the view that an employer must be responsible in all cases if one of their employees or a customer has been hit by a falling object.
Employers and companies have a legal responsibility to minimise the risk of such injuries, and there is a wide range of rules and regulations that they must comply with.
