Compensation for Industrial Diseases
Making a claim for occupational illness compensation
An occupational or industrial disease is a sickness induced by employment or pre-existing conditions that have been worsened by work obligations. If you have been a victim of industrial sickness, we can help you in obtaining industrial disease compensation to alleviate your financial burden.
Occupational and industrial illnesses include the following:
- Pneumoconiosis of the black lung and coal miners Occupational melanoma
- Lung illness caused by silica

You may be entitled to compensation if you have been diagnosed with an occupational sickness as a result of your employer’s negligence. Employers are required by safety standards and workplace legislation to take reasonable safeguards and processes to protect their workers.
