Tesco Accident Claims

Legally, supermarkets have a duty of care towards all of their employees and customers. If an accident occurs in a store you could claim compensation. Contact us for free no-obligation advice, we are here to help.

Some of the most common causes of accidents in supermarkets include:

  • Spillages or wet floors
  • Accidents in the store car park
  • Items falling off shelves
  • Trips or falls caused by stray items or trolleys

SLIPPED IN TESCO?

One of the most common types of accidents that occur in supermarkets is slips caused by spilled food or drink. An item may have been dropped or fallen off a shelf. A supermarket should provide their staff with training to deal with spillages such as erecting a wet floor sign to alert customers. If you have slipped in a store and there were no wet floor signs to warn you about the spillage that caused your injury, you may have a claim.

TESCO ACCIDENTS AT WORK

If you are an employee, the company has a duty of care to look after you. Whether you work in-store, in a warehouse or at head office, your manager should ensure that you are properly trained. They should also make sure that they provide you with the correct personal protective equipment (PPE) if appropriate. If they have failed to do either of these things and you become injured, you may have a valid accident at work claim.

WHAT TO DO IF YOU ARE INJURED IN TESCO

If you are injured while shopping in or while working, contact us, we have experience in dealing with supermarket accident claims. You have just three years from the date of your accident in which to make a claim. Because of this, if you would like to make a claim, you must start the legal process as soon as possible. If you would like to claim on behalf of a child, this three-year timeframe begins on the date of their eighteenth birthday.
