Occupational Disease
Members of Chambers are regularly instructed to act in claims for occupational disease in particular:
- Asbestos;
- Control of Substances Hazardous to Health;
- Work-related upper limb disorder;
- Vibration white finger;
- Asthma and other respiratory conditions;
- Dermatitis;
- Cancer;
- Deafness;
- Stress claims.
Counsel are fully aware of the additional demands created by disease work and are keen to be involved at the earliest stage in the litigation process to assist in the marshalling of the issues in the case through to trial. Members undertake interlocutory work and trial work and pride themselves as working as part of a team, understanding the importance that expert witnesses can play in such work.
St Pauls Chambers Advise on Freezing of Assets
The term Occupational Disease refers to any illness that has resulted from any occupational activity. An illness is categorised under this term if it can be proven as more prominent in certain workers, compared to the population in general. When occupational disease cases occur, it is up to the employer, or in some cases insurer, to prove that the disease is not a result of the work environment.
At St Pauls Chambers, our Personal Injury team are experienced in Occupational Disease law and cases.
