Industrial Disease Solicitors and Litigation Lawyers

Many thousands of people every year develop an illness caused by contact with something at work. Dust, chemicals, fumes, noise and vibration exposure at work are all common causes of illnesses. These conditions can sometimes develop very quickly or can take months or even years to develop depending on the person and the substance.

For many years rules and regulations have been in place to try and reduce the risk of workers developing illnesses but employers have often failed to comply with these laws to keep work places safe.

If you develop an illness which you believe has been caused by work, you should seek medical advice immediately. If the doctor confirms that your illness has been caused by work it is advisable to seek legal advice about compensation for your illness and also advice in relation to possible entitlement to state benefits.

Among the most common types of conditions caused by work are:

• Occupational Asthma
• Asbestos related illnesses
• Pneumoconiosis
• Dermatitis
• Allergies including latex allergies
• Vibration White Finger and Carpal Tunnel Syndrome
• Occupational Deafness and Tinnitus
• Cancers of the lung, skin, bladder and nasal passages
