Assaulted at Work? You May Be Entitled to Compensation
If you’ve been assaulted at work, it can be a terrifying experience. Whether the attack was physical or verbal, you may be entitled to compensation. Many victims of workplace assault are unaware they can make a claim for compensation—even if the incident was caused by a customer, colleague, or member of the public.
At Injury Claim Care, we support people who’ve been threatened or assaulted in the workplace. You could be eligible to claim against your employer or through the Criminal Injuries Compensation Authority (CICA). Our experts are here to help you understand your options and start a claim.
What Is Assault at Work?
Assault at work includes any incident where you’re physically assaulted, threatened, or abused while carrying out your job. This may include:
- Physical attacks like punches, kicks, or being grabbed
- Verbal threats, shouting, or harassment
- Sexual assault or inappropriate touching
- Violence at work involving customers, patients, or coworkers
If the assault in the workplace caused injury or distress, you could be entitled to workplace assault compensation.
Can I Make a Compensation Claim?
You may be able to claim compensation if:
- The assault at work happened in the last three years
- The incident was reported to your employer or police
- You suffered physical injuries or psychological harm
- Your employer failed their duty of care to protect you
If your employer did not take steps to keep you safe at work, you can make a compensation claim. We’ll help you claim compensation directly from your employer or claim through the CICA.
Employer Responsibility and Workplace Assault Claims
Under the Health and Safety at Work Act, employers have a legal duty of care to prevent violence and manage risks. You could claim against your employer if:
- No action was taken to prevent violence
- Previous complaints were ignored
- You weren’t properly trained or protected
- You were attacked at work by someone known to be dangerous
You could receive compensation if the workplace assault was due to employer negligence.
How Much Compensation Could I Receive?
The amount of compensation depends on several factors:
- The type and severity of your injuries
- Psychological trauma caused by the assault
- Time off work or loss of income
- Medical treatment and travel costs
- Impact on your daily life
