If you, your loved ones or friends have been involved in an accident and was injured in a public place, as a result of negligence or disregard for safety requirements on the part of the owners – you can receive compensation.
Public places can hardly be thought of as places of increased danger, however, the human factor or faulty equipment can lead to very serious accidents.
Examples of such places can be:
- Shopping centres, stores and restaurants
- Exhibition centres, stadiums and cinemas
- Railway or metro stations and airports
- Entertainment activities and amusement parks
Public places are under constant governmental control.
One of the main requirements for the owners of such places is to be covered by insurance, so-called - Public Liability Insurance. In simple terms, the premises or territory owner is obliged to insure your safety against possible incidents.
The comfort and safety of the visitors while in public places is an essential condition to be ensured. Commercial premises owners are required to regularly monitor the condition of the floor coverings, the presence of anti-slip mats, markings and warning signs. Particular attention should be paid to the safety of visitors using elevators, escalators and turnstiles.
The above requirements also apply to councils. Council services are required to bear responsibility and exercise regular control over:
- pedestrian zones
- street lighting
- hatches and drainage grates
- fencing of the facilities under construction and repair
- premises in council ownership
If you, your loved ones or friends were injured in a public place, as a result of negligence or disregard for safety requirements on the part of the owners - you can receive compensation.
