Occupational Diseases

Occupational Diseases

Occupational diseases are illnesses caused by exposure to harmful conditions in the workplace. 

These diseases can develop over time due to exposure to toxins, harmful chemicals, or repetitive strain.

If you have been diagnosed with an occupational disease due to the conditions at your place of employment, HPA Solicitors UK can assist you in making a claim.

 

What is an Occupational Disease?

Occupational diseases include conditions such as:

  • Asbestosis
  • Occupational asthma
  • Repetitive strain injuries (RSI)
  • Skin conditions caused by exposure to hazardous substances

These diseases often develop over time, and it can sometimes be difficult to prove that they are work-related. However, if you can establish that your disease was caused by your working conditions, you may be entitled to compensation.
