Accidents At Work

Claimant was employed as an assembly worker fitting various components. When arriving at work one Monday morning, claimant was advised that the working system had been changed.

The changes required her to lift the components to her desk and put them back on to the floor when she had finished working with them. By the end of her first day she had severe pain in her neck and shoulders as a result of carrying out this task and had to take sick leave.

She returned to work after six weeks after being informed by her doctor not to carry out lifting tasks. However, the employer required her to continue with this type of work, and as a result she had no option but to leave.

Four years later she was still suffering some pain and discomfort, and had, in addition, become depressed as a result of the financial problems caused by her inability to work.Her claim was successful and she was paid out £40,000
