A manual handling injury in hospitality is not unusual, as working in a hotel, bar, or any catering job can involve lifting and moving things all through the working day.<\/span><\/p>\nThe worker in the hospitality industry may be expected to do many jobs while at work, but they should be fully trained for all manual handling tasks.<\/span><\/p>\nTypes of personal injury from manual handling claims:<\/span><\/p>\n\n- Back injury to a hotel porter from lifting and carrying cases for guests<\/span><\/li>\n
- Spinal injury to kitchen staff from lifting and shifting food items\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n

<\/span>Compensation for a manual handling injury claim*<\/h2><\/span><\/div><\/div><\/div>
Compensation for a manual handling injury claim* in Ireland can see you receiving damages for injuring your back in a warehouse accident or tearing shoulder ligaments when working in the healthcare sector.<\/span><\/p>\nThe compensation awarded in Ireland for a manual handling injury differs depending on the injury or injuries you suffer, such as the severity of a spinal injury or the amount of time you are off work due to a repetitive strain injury in the wrist.<\/span><\/p>\nA workplace injury, such as in a manual handling claim, may cause pain and discomfort and affect your daily life. You could spend time in hospital and be unable to work or look after family members in your care. A worker may be unable to return to their usual job and could need to retrain for another type of work.<\/span><\/p>\nThere is not one fixed compensation award for any workplace accident claim. A personal injury solicitor can only give you an idea of what is possible when you suffer due to negligence by an employer, and what you can claim for the effects on you.<\/span><\/p>\nEvery compensation claim* is different. You may experience pain and suffering due to the manual handling injury, which could affect your ability to work, travel, and provide for your family.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\nWith your manual handling claim, you seek damages for the effects of the injury or injuries due to the lack of duty of care by the employer today and in your future life.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\nPBN Litigation Solicitors can explain how the process works and how your workplace accident claim will combine two types of damages.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>
