Areas of Law / Employment

My job often involved visits to properties that were affected by damp. After several years I developed chest and breathing problems and was admitted to hospital on a number of occasions, where I was told I was highly sensitive to the mould fungus. I’ve now had to finish work altogether and I have to go into hospital regularly when my breathing deteriorates. Do I have a claim for compensation against my employers?

You should see a solicitor specialising in this area immediately since time limits apply. The solicitor will want to know at what point you became aware that your working conditions were affecting your health, whether you made this clear to your employers, and what action if any your employers took to improve your working environment. Specialist medical evidence will be needed to prove a connection between your symptoms and your former working environment.
