Many people suffer from industrial diseases from the conditions of their workplace. Other industrial diseases include asthma, asbestosis and repetitive strain injury (RSI).

Your employer has a duty to take steps to ensure that your health does not suffer as a result of your job. They cannot ignore any complaints or concerns you may raise about the effect of your employment on your health. They will usually be insured and their insurance company will deal with your claim. An employer is generally not entitled to sack you for bringing a claim against them arising out of an accident that was their fault. Even if you are self-employed you may be able to claim compensation if, for example, you were sub-contracted, or you were working in an area that was someone else’s safety responsibility.
