friends Dp is injured at work

[biglips]

but he cannot find the injury section on his contract

what does he do next?

as part of his job... he had to open the sack of summat and theyare all stacked up 8 feet high (8 sacks) but one of them fell and scraped his leg badly

In terms of what - Legal action or sickness payment ??

Did he get it recorded in the accident book straight away?

Notify Health and Safety exec ?

There is only a legal need to inform the HSE if its a major injury or if he has been off work for over 3 days.
Biglips if you post some more details, I can give you some advice but at the mo I'm not sure of what sort of advice you are after

yes he did
hes in pain atm but not been to hossy yet

he doesnt know what to do though

sorry not much of info as friend is feeding her baba atm

she will be on here later

If he ends up being unable to work for over 3 days, his employer should contact the HSE under the RIDDOR regs
