The most frequent cause of injury continues to be accidents caused by slips and trips.
A teaching union has secured £295,597 for members who were injured or assaulted at their workplace. The Educational Institute of Scotland said all teachers and lecturers deserved to work in a safe place, and employers had to ensure all possible steps were taken to keep a safe working environment.
“All employers must treat the health and safety of their employees as a priority, so that injuries to employees – and costly financial settlements – can be avoided. It is in everyone’s best interests for our schools, colleges and universities to be safe places to work and to study.” The EIS managed to secure £149,500 in accident claims for seven members, with one member tripping on a boulder and suffering an elbow fracture and another slipping on black ice and breaking their ankle in two places.
