Machine related injuries can be caused by a number of different factors in a number of different professions. When operated correctly with suitable training and supervision, dangerous machinery can be operated without accident or injury. However, if your employer is negligent, then they risk an accident or injury occurring. Common causes of machine injury can include lack of protective gear such as safety goggles, steel-toe boots or a hard hat, inadequate training to operate machinery, or machinery that is faulty in the first place so that when used it poses risk to the person operating it. If the correct health and safety procedures are not adhered to in your workplace and you have suffered an accident or injury as a result, then please do not hesitate to get in touch with Forbes Solicitors - you may be entitled to a claim.

Dangerous machines in the workplace can include a number of different types of equipment that are used in several different occupations. Anything from abrasive wheels to forklift trucks, hand tools, lifts, hoists, escalators and conveyor belts can be dangerous and if you're not given the correct equipment or shown how to use them properly, then you could be at risk of serious accident or injury.

When operating dangerous machinery, it is the responsibility of your employer to ensure that you're fully trained to use the equipment safely and that the equipment that you are operating has passed tests to ensure that it is safe to work with. Your employer is also responsible for supplying you with all of the necessary protective gear.
