i work for an aluminium window firm, and recently had to goto a building site to correct a fault with a window our company had supplied to a building firm, while there i fell down a whole which was covered with a rubber bin lid and wasnt marked or secured, and i injured my foot and ankle. after speaking to my boss about the poor health and safety conditions on site which wasnt run by my firm he said it wasnt his problem, now currently I am off work as i cannot put any weight on the foot as per the direction of my doctor, i was considering putting a claim in for loss of earnings, however I am not sure who the claim would be against.
my question is simply who would the claim be against if i was to go that far. would it be my firm as they were paying me and they sent me to the site, or is it the building company that was running the site and who caused the injury in the first place?
