Hi All

I have lurker for ages but never had a need to post till now.

Anyone know where I can find the statistics on how many Work Related Claims there are on average per year in the UK?

I can find number of accidents etc but not how many people actually claim.

I am trying to get my line managers to get a bit better at paperwork as I just audited them and half the paperwork was missing. I am putting together a power point presentation to kind of show how all the paperwork no matter how stupid they think it is actually has a point - one of the things I wanted to talk about was the gradual build up of a claims culture and how proper paperwork can help in an investigation but I just can't get the statistics :(

Can anyone point me in the right direction?

Liking the new forum lay out

Regards

Good Idea; I shall call them now. Its getting late and obviously my brain has decided to go home early!

Thanks

I think you will find that, contrary to popular opinion, claims against employers are decreasing not increasing and that has been a steady trend for some years now.
