RE: allocation of blame in IIDB claim
Mon 06-Mar-06 02:23 PM |
blame is irrelevant in the context of IIDB - all that is relevant is whether it was a work related accident.
no problem on time; he can claim for IIDB whenever he wants, usual back dating rules, but must have been at least 6 months since the accident.
sounds to me like you should get a % for a limited period, for review once he's had his replacement.
And is he trying to claim agsint the employer anyway? irrespect of the huge amounts of contributory negligence he might lose from his damages, he needs to be aware that if he does, and that claim includes loss of earnings, then he would have to repay the IIDB up to date of settlemet out of the loss of earnigns part of the claim.
