We all know that [link widoczny dla zalogowanych] we can claim compensation [link widoczny dla zalogowanych] if we have sustained an injury at work and it [link widoczny dla zalogowanych] is fairly simple to demonstrate the injury suffered and its cause.
But something which [link widoczny dla zalogowanych] is often overlooked is the mental health implications of accidents suffered at work. These can be much more serious than the burden of recovering from a physical injury.
Thomas Corr [link widoczny dla zalogowanych] was a maintenance engineer working to repair a car panel machine. As he was bent down examining the fault, the machine suddenly picked up a car panel and swung it at his head.
Luckily, Mr Corr ducked instinctively and narrowly avoided being decapitated by the incident. However, [link widoczny dla zalogowanych] he did receive a heavy blow to the head and had his right [link widoczny dla zalogowanych] ear severed by the unpredictable machine.
While his ear healed in time and ceased to cause Mr Corr any pain, he began to suffer from tinnitus and severe migraines as a result of his injury.
The tinnitus and debilitating headaches began to have an effect [link widoczny dla zalogowanych] on his mental state as he [link widoczny dla zalogowanych] slowly succumbed to depression in the years following the accident.
Eventually, six years after the accident, unable to take it any longer, Mr Corr committed suicide by jumping from the top a multi storey car park.
The deterioration of his mental health was brought on by his accident at work, which consequently led [link widoczny dla zalogowanych] to his death.
After a lengthy court battle, Mr [link widoczny dla zalogowanych] Corr's window was awarded compensation as his Mr Corr's employer was deemed ultimately responsible for his death, despite him committing suicide so long after the incident.
The employer had admitted that Mr Corr's depression was a reasonably forseeable consequence [link widoczny dla zalogowanych] of the incident.
