Fork Lift Operator wins £2.4 Million Compensation
A warehouse worker has received almost £2.4 million in an out of court settlement after he had an accident at work on the fork lift he was driving.
The successful claimant was working for a stationery company in Cwmbran, South Wales when the accident happened in 1995. He was driving a lift truck around a sharp corner when it overturned crushing him underneath it.
His spine was broken in three places and he is now paralysed from the waist down. He claimed on the basis that he had not received any training on how to drive fork lift trucks and was also left unsupervised at the time of the accident.
The company accepted 90% liability for the accident
