Work Injury, Employee Compensation, Employer Negligence & Occupational Disease Claims|Professional Work Injury Legal Services
Yip Tse Tang Solicitors has over 20 years of experience in work injury and employee compensation claims. Our professional legal team has successfully assisted thousands of workers across various sectors — including construction workers, government employees, clerical staff, warehouse staff, healthcare workers, and contractors — in obtaining fair compensation from employers.
Two Legal Foundations for Work Injury Claims
- Employees’ Compensation Ordinance: Under Hong Kong law, employers are legally obligated to compensate employees who suffer injury or occupational disease during employment.
- Common Law Negligence Claim: Additional compensation may be pursued if the employer’s negligence — such as poor management, faulty equipment, or unsafe workplace — caused the injury.
Our lawyers are highly familiar with Hong Kong and UK case law and will pursue the most appropriate and maximum compensation for injured workers based on the facts of each case.
