Can I girlfriend still claim compensation for damages from work if she never went to hospital or the doctors about her injury?
My girlfriend has visible scarring on her arm from a burn injury in work and I'm just wondering if she was able to make a claim if she never felt the need to seek medical attention.
Someone bumped into her in the kitchen in the restaurant were she worked and her arm went into one of the hot grills and she suffered 1st degree burns, they were all rushing round under too much pressure from the boss.
They wouldn't allow her to leave work to go to hospital and they didn't provide first aid, she had to go and wrap a bandage around her own arm herself, and she did not go later on that night because she had work the next day and she works a zero hour contract so she didn't want to lose shifts.
It's in the accident book though and other co workers and colleagues had said they will support her as a witness if she wants to do something about it.
Can she claim for work related injuries from her old employer?
It happened last year what is the time limit to claim compensation?
