Can I claim on behalf of someone who was fatally injured?

If a family member has been killed in a factory accident, you can make a claim for compensation on their behalf. We know that claiming compensation won’t bring your family member back but making a claim can ease some of the financial pressure on you. Compensation will include a Statutory Bereavement Award in recognition of the grief a person has gone through after the death of a loved one, as well as a financial token in recognition that the person’s death was wrong. There are other costs and expenses that can be claimed, including:

  • The pain and suffering of the deceased
  • Repayment of losses, for example, funeral expenses
  • Loss of income and financial support from the deceased
  • The cost of probate
  • Compensation for services the deceased would have performed (e.g., housework, childcare, etc.)
