if injured would you claim against your employer?

I wouldn't no. I feel guilty enough having them over a barrel each week with expenses, overtime and other little things I'm entitled to to pad my salary.

I have never damaged myself at work but i have abused myself. Thankfully I work at home.

I am self employed so can't help.

Hmm.
What happens if you go permanently on the sick because of this injury? Are they going to give you full pay indefinitely?

My mother fell because of a hole in the floor boards at work and wrenched here neck when she fell, her boss persuaded her to make a claim.

Do footballers sue other players/clubs for injuries?

Well yea, it does - you do seriously hard work every day for your entire life and its going to take a toll on your body. Thats not your employers fault.

Unless it's obvo their fault, no.

Claiming on petty stuff is for retards.
