Accidents at work in Bristol: The local stats

Workplace accidents are more common in Bristol than you might think, and the figures show why claiming compensation matters. Here’s what’s happening locally:

  • Injury numbers: The Health and Safety Executive (HSE) reported 604,000 non-fatal workplace injuries UK-wide in 2023/24, with around 124,000 lasting over seven days. Bristol, with its 467,000 residents and thriving sectors like construction and logistics, likely sees 5,000–7,000 injuries annually, hundreds of which spark claims.
  • Fatal incidents: Nationally, 135 workers died in 2023/24, and while Bristol-specific fatalities aren’t isolated, its busy industries suggest a handful occur here yearly, each one a tragedy that could lead to claims.
  • Construction risks: Bristol’s booming construction scene contributes heavily, nationally, 51 deaths were in this sector in 2023/24, and local sites like those in the city centre see frequent injuries, from falls to equipment mishaps.
  • Claim success: Around 16% of UK personal injury claims are workplace-related, with Bristol reflecting this trend, Marley Solicitors helps many locals win pay-outs from £1,000 to tens of thousands.

These stats hit home for Bristol workers. If you’ve been injured at work, Marley Solicitors can help you join those who’ve successfully claimed.

What counts as an accident at work claim in Bristol?

You might have a case if your employer’s negligence caused your injury, such as:

  • Falls from height (e.g., scaffolding collapses in St Philips)
  • Slips or trips (e.g., wet floors in a Redland shop)
  • Machinery accidents (e.g., faulty equipment in a Fishponds warehouse)
  • Manual handling injuries (e.g., back strains in a Horfield office)

If it happened at work in Bristol and wasn’t your fault, Marley Solicitors can fight for your compensation, covering pain, lost wages, and more.

A Bristol worker’s story

I fell off a ladder at a Temple Meads site and broke my arm, couldn’t work for months. Marley Solicitors came to my flat in Easton, sorted the claim, and won me £20,000. They knew Bristol’s rules and cared.” – Paul R., Bristol Resident
