Hello legal expert, I need some free legal advice about making a claim for personal injuries from an assault at work that could have been prevented.
I worked as a sales assistant in a supermarket super store for many years and had to leave after I was assaulted by a troublesome member of staff.
i was assaulted at work through no fault of my own and they knew this persons issues with aggression was getting worse and worse and yet they did nothing was put in place.
I have some minor personal injuries at work because of this co worker, I have a great big bruise to my chest where he punched me and a bruise and a skin tear to arm where he grabbed me.
despite the physical injuries, most of the damage is mostly emotional as he has has frightened me to the point I don't want to go back to work was he was not a competent employee and is still working in there as am employee and I was not assaulted by a customer or a service user.
How much compensation can receive for an assault at work from a fellow employee in the supermarket?
