I slipped on ice at work yesterday and my iPhone 5 that was in my jacket pocket is completely smashed . It's insured but it's £100 excess .
I ended up having to get sent home from work as my back was so sore from the fall . My colleagues have said that as it was an accident in the workplace (I have filled out an accident report form and forwarded it to my manager) that the company should cover the cost of the phone repair ?
I spoke to my boss but she didn't take me on at all . Was I being unreasonable ? Would I be unreasonable to contact my HR or H&S dept regarding the damage ? (Is try my boss first again I think)
