Burn Injury Claims
Burn injuries can occur in many different workplaces or in public places and often have lasting physical and emotional effects. Whether the injury was caused by fire, hot liquids, steam, chemicals, electricity or an explosion, employers are expected to take reasonable steps to reduce these risks and maintain a safe working environment.
If you suffered a burn injury because of someone else’s negligence, you may be entitled to make a burn injury claim. Depending on the circumstances, you could recover compensation for your injuries and the financial losses resulting from the accident.

When Can You Make a Burn Injury Claim?
A claim may be possible where an employer or another responsible party failed to meet their legal duty of care. This could involve inadequate safety procedures, defective equipment, insufficient protective clothing, poor training, or a failure to identify and manage workplace hazards.
If your burn injury happened while carrying out your job, you may also be able to pursue work accident claims where negligence played a role.
Common Causes of Workplace Burn Injuries
Burn injuries can arise in a wide range of industries, including manufacturing, construction, hospitality, healthcare, engineering, and agriculture. Common causes include:
Contact with hot surfaces, chemical spills, electrical faults, steam exposure, fires, explosions, faulty machinery and inadequate protective equipment.
Injuries and Their Impact
Burn injuries can vary from minor burns that heal within a short period to severe injuries requiring surgery, skin grafts and ongoing rehabilitation. In addition to physical pain, many people experience permanent scarring, reduced mobility or psychological effects following a serious burn accident.
Where another party was responsible, you may also have grounds to make a personal injury claim for the impact the injury has had on your health, employment and everyday life.
How Compensation Is Assessed
The value of a burn injury claim depends on the individual circumstances of the accident. Factors such as the severity of the burn, the recovery period, any permanent scarring, the effect on your ability to work and the financial losses you have suffered will all be considered when your claim is assessed.
