Hi from the past 3 weeks i am in sickness leave, Its due to back injury and I would like to claim for work related injuries.
I am operating way too heavy stuff at work In the past I had made various complaints about health and safety how ever nothing changed.
I didn't have an accident but was put under pressure from my boss who gave me jobs to do that were dangerous and unsafe like needing to push 200kg along the room by myself wasn't trained, trying to do so I badly hurt my and strained my back.
I was in agony and had to go to hospital to see the doctor who said I had severely injured my spine.
I have trouble with my back cant do my job and now work only pay me ssp, I am without money for living now and not sure what to do, I earned a lot more money when I was at employed and working.
Can I claim compensation for straining my back at work from my employer?
Can I claim money for loss of earnings to make up for the wages I have lost?
