Court rejects workman fall injury compensation claim on client
A decorator who was injured whilst using a ladder owned by a domestic client has failed in his six-figure compensation claim. Tomasz Kmiecic fractured his elbow when the under length ladder he used slipped when attempted to access a garage roof.
The judge said the facts suggested Mr Sniegula was “in respect of this work at least irresponsible and incompetent” and he “may have deserved the epithet of a cowboy operator”.
