Understanding the workplace accident claims process
If you have been injured in an accident at work, it is important to report the incident to your employer and ensure it is recorded in the accident book. You should also seek medical attention and keep a record of any treatment, expenses and time off work.
When you contact Calio, we will begin with an initial conversation to understand what happened and assess your eligibility to make a claim. We will then collect evidence, including:
- Accident reports and witness statements
- Medical records and assessments
- Photographs of the scene or faulty equipment
We will handle discussions with your employer’s insurers and manage the claim from start to finish. Most workplace accident claims are resolved through negotiation without going to court, but if your case does proceed to the courtroom, we will represent you and guide you throughout.
You generally have three years from the date of the accident to make a claim. Acting quickly helps preserve evidence and gives your case the best chance of success.
