CIRCUMSTANCES
Our client was working as a school caretaker. They were asked to remove a squirrel’s nest from a shed. They were given a set of ladders to access and remove the nest. The ladders were not high enough to reach the nest so the client used a nearby fence to give extra height. As they stretched to reach the nest a squirrel ran at the client causing the client to fall and suffer a back injury.
The client had not been given adequate equipment or training to remove the nest.
INJURIES
As a result of the accident, the client suffered back pain requiring 6 weeks of physiotherapy. The client terminated their employment with the school following the accident.
SETTLEMENT
Our client instructed Jefferies and was represented by case handler Michael Mawdsley. Michael worked hard to recover compensation for the client’s injuries and the clients’ losses.
