your health: Can I sue my employer for health and safety breaches?

Can I sue my employer for health and safety breaches?

Yes, but only for personal injury.

A claim against your employer about a breach of health and safety Regulations must normally be brought by a Safety Inspector. You can sue your employer for compensation for personal injury resulting from a breach of those Regulations.
