Common Factory Accidents

Factory injuries can occur due to unsafe working conditions, faulty equipment, or inadequate safety protocols. Some of the most common accidents include:

• Machinery Accidents – Injuries caused by defective, unguarded, or poorly maintained machines.
• Chemical Exposure – Harmful effects from toxic substances due to inadequate protective measures.
• Slips, Trips, and Falls – Resulting from wet floors, cluttered workspaces, or uneven surfaces.
• Falling Objects – Injuries caused by improperly stored or unsecured materials.

Employer Responsibilities in Factory Safety

Factory owners and employers have a legal duty to ensure a safe working environment under the Health and Safety at Work Act 1974. This includes:

• Providing proper training and personal protective equipment (PPE).
• Regularly inspecting and maintaining machinery to prevent malfunctions.
• Conducting routine health and safety assessments.
• Ensuring compliance with industry safety regulations.

Failure to meet these responsibilities can lead to preventable injuries, for which you may be eligible to claim compensation.
