Hi there I am looking for adobe as to whether my partner has a claim or not for an accident at work.
He works as a window cleaner self employed at a window cleaning company and he has recently fallen from height off a ladder from 12ft while he was working alone after telling them only a few days prior he needs to have someone to work with him for health and safety reasons.
He said the ladders are unsafe and they are not banned from work but they are usually discouraged from use, so usually someone else is with the cleaner to make sure the ladder is safe and secure while he goes up
He londed on his back after the bad fall and is lucky to be walking, he has been off work for 3 weeks so far and he is unable to walk or drive and has had many x rays and tests done at hospital and diagnosed with broken ribs.
He has sever internal bruising and has breathing difficulties as his lungs don't fill up properly and he is in a lt of pain and discomfort trying to breath.
How much compensation could my husband be entitled to for a fall from height off ladder at work?
