I used local who operate a no win no fee they were very good.
Anyone with any knowledge of plant knows those micro diggers can be very unstable, much more so than larger excavators.
In addition be very lucky you haven’t been sacked for trying to drive it outside of the cab.

It is very possible, especially if they deem it as gross misconduct which would give them a good case for a non claim.
I can sympathise with the op.
I am currently off work due to an industrial accident, and I got my payslip through the post yesterday, and all I have been paid is ssp.
Luckily I am in the union, so watch this space…

Ok I’m fairly new to this forum but I’ve seen this blokes posts a few time and well not to put to finer a point on it they sound like cobblers.
In another post he wanted to know if US units work well in European roads given that they are like hens teeth on the road. Then he said he’s had a heart attack.
Sorry mate but I think your a troll.

He is a troll, I said before, it’s dozy. Since dozy was caught out the idiot … now this fella pops up with far fetched stories.

Oi. With talk like that, you’re going to get me accused of having multiple accounts.
(The potato peeler was outed as a troll before, and ran off to his mum. )
So…you claim not to have been trained, yet in a previous employment you were fully trained with appropriate certificates…did you forget all that training when you left?
You knew it wasn’t safe yet you still went ahead and did it…good luck with that claim.
As for loving your job…a company that ignores your report of an industrial injury, demands that you drive back to the yard injured (just have a think about where you would be had you wiped out a bus queue or similar due to not having full control of your truck) and then left you to get yourself to hospital…yeah…much to love there.
If you’re not a troll…you’re one step above an ameoba on the evolutionary scale…you’ll find this job becomes far less painful once you develop a backbone.
Thanks for everyones help, I dont wanna p off the company I work for coss I like my job, but will contact a solicitor before i return to work to find out where I stand. Therefore in my return to work interview they have i have some facts to present. If they think they can fob this off…

Mate, we’re truckers. Not Doctors, solicitors, physchiatrists, gynaecologists (although I may be tempted to take a look), etc. Just truckers. If you have a hurty wrist, what does your common sense tell you? And if it tells you to go on a trucking forum and ask, I’ll be really disappointed.

I can’t even be bothered to reply to this 
It don’t matter what tickets you have when you start a new job they have to sign you off on the induction days as to cover themselves for their own insurance
You have a open shut case if they did not and the least they should do is pay you full wages if not take them to court if as above they will ■■■■ themselves

And I’m not replying to you either. Someone tell this geezer I’m not talking to him please.
Go and see a solicitor, to many barrack room laywers on here.
But write EVERYTHING down now, whilst its fresh in your mind.
IMO, the fact you have recieved no formal training will be a bonus for your claim.

From what you’ve said mate,shouldn’t have been moving machine with roll cage down,no way is bloke correct saying it’s ok to move machine without being sat on seat,seatbelt on,company’s love the ‘trained,authorised,competant’ get out,hence the proliferation of ‘tickets’ these days,if you haven’t been trained,their in the wrong,to start with,but…by going ahead n moving it,seems to me it all comes down on you being in the wrong?yep yep and yep my error i should have said no gone back to base. but lack of training, pressure from senior managers to get item. would i have a case for loss of earnings?
Best thing to do would be try n get free half hour interview with ‘normal’ solicitor,had accident myself,serious,got paperwork backing up firm/clients fault n I’m still wary of claiming,imho injury lawyers are only in it for one person ,themselves,firm I’m on with have ‘,persuaded’ people to work on light duties rather than report a riddor,I made them,did your accident go in book?problem I see is when you explain how accident happens you’re dropping yourself in it,which the firm will love,all the best for full recovery
Agree with this.
Contact a “normal” solicitor for the free 30mins assessment that they offer BUT make sure you tell him the whole story and not fabricate it to make your side of it sound better.
Just imagine you’re a neutral looking on and give that version of events. That way he can let you know if there is a case to be answered.
It didn’t happen. Stop wasting your time with sensible responses.
