Accidents at work and claims to an employer

We advise on all legal aspects linked with accidents and incidents at work. In many cases an accident at work occurs as a result of the flawed organization of work, improper preparation of the working environment, lack of control on safety and health. As a result, injured employees or the relatives of a diseased person may lawfully claim the employer for reimbursement of damages. 

We advise employers with regards to all legal aspects of ensuring safety and health at work. This is in particular relevant for the construction, repair, warehousing, and transportation companies. In particular, our law firm advises on the following matters:

• Labour law regulations regarding safety at work
• Proper recording of incidents and legal aspects of internal investigations of accidents at work
• Accidents and incidents on the way to work and out of the work
• Reporting requirements in relation to the incidents at work
• Scope of employer’s liability
• Liaising with the State Labour  Agency (in Lithuanian: Valstybinė darbo inspekcija) in relation to accidents and incidents at work
• Accidents litigation and dispute settlement
