Each year thousands of people working in the British Army are injured in an accident that could have been prevented. If you have suffered an army injury due to your employer’s negligence, you are legally entitled to claim compensation.
The Ministry of Defence (MOD) is no different to any other employer and must comply with strict regulations on workplace safety to prevent their staff from being injured or becoming ill. Although working in the Army has obvious hazards such as working with dangerous weapons and chemicals, most accidents are preventable and regular risk assessments must be carried out on a regular basis.
Making a claim and time limits
As with most claims, any claim against the MOD must be made within three years of the accident taking place. However, if the seriousness of the injury means that the claimant is unable to take legal action, this rule may not apply.
