Do I have to get a medical examination?

In most cases, yes, so an independent medical expert can assess your health problems and the impact on your life.

I don’t know if my illness or injury was caused by my work or whether I would have got it anyway. How do I know or how can you prove it?

You may not know, but if you have health problems and you think they have been caused by your job or work conditions, then seek medical attention and contact us as soon as possible.

The employer that caused my illness or injury has ceased trading or gone out of business. Can I still claim?

Yes, we can trace them on your behalf. It doesn’t matter whether they are still trading or have gone out of business.

I don’t work for the employer that caused my injury any more. Does that matter?

No, you can still pursue a personal injury compensation claim against a previous employer.

What does the ‘date of knowledge’ mean for industrial disease?

The date of knowledge means the time you started to experience symptoms of your illness or injury, or when you thought that perhaps your employment had been the cause of your ill health. For more information on the date of knowledge and whether the time limit has already started to run, read Industrial Disease: You Might Have More Than 3 Years Since Employment To Claim.
