内容説明

Extensive coverage of occupational injury litigation brought together in one accessible volume, with highly practical work with checklists and specimen pleadings; written by experts with extensive experience in occupational injury litigation. Occupational diseases are responsible for a large proportion of health related absenteeism in the work place. There is entitlement to the Industrial Injuries Disablement Benefit for those whose illness is contracted from a prescribed disease covered by the Industrial Injuries Scheme. However, this is not the only source of compensation. This highly practical manual brings together, in one portable volume, guidance on occupational illness litigation. The authors, both experienced litigators, take the practitioner step-by-step through each stage of a claim, eg what constitutes an industrial illness, how to bring a claim, what evidence is required, how to use discovery, how to use expert evidence and much more. With specimen pleadings and plenty of checklists - including one for initiating litigation - this guide will help attain the best settlement possible for the client.
