Always write down the details of your accident, and log it in your company’s accident book. This should be done as soon as possible and every workplace should have one. Make sure that the facts in the accident book are correct and if there are any witnesses you should take their details too. You should also go to your doctor or hospital if necessary so that there is a record of your medical history.
All of this is crucial if you intend on claiming for compensation.

Typically, an employer is responsible for the health and safety of their workers. As such, it is important to know your rights as an employee and how to protect them.
An employer should provide a safe place to work. In other words, they should not allow dangerous situations or conditions that could lead to injury if not corrected. For example, if there are holes in the floor at work and someone falls through it because they were unaware that it existed then this would be considered negligence by the employer since they failed to provide adequate protection against falls (i.e., installing guardrails around staircases).
An employer should also provide adequate training so employees can understand how best protect themselves against workplace accidents happening around them due to negligence on behalf of others who work alongside them regularly - such as supervisors who do not always post signs warning people about potential hazards nearby! This can include having regular meetings with all staff members from different departments within the company so everyone knows what role each worker plays when performing tasks related directly or indirectly with various departments' operations."
