A potential personal injury claim exists when an employee has suffered an injury or accident on the job. We have all seen numerous advertisements encouraging injured people to file lawsuits promising large money $$$$ settlements.

Some of the first questions you will be asked after an employee accident are:

What safety measures were in place to prevent the accident?

Has the company provided safety training?

Federal, State, and Local laws may also require special safety training to ensure your employees safety on the job. In a lawsuit, Informal “On the job” training is questionable at best. (what qualifies your OJT Trainer to train others?; content of the OJT?; proof of content?). A formal safety training class by AMT, ( a qualified Aviation Safety Training Provider) will show a strong effort on your part to promote a positive safety culture at your Repair Station.

A Safety Training Certificate will be provided your company, along with a Master Manual containing course outlines, course content, and testing. A Control sheet is issued for each employee showing the class information, duration of the training, Instructor, test results. The sheet is signed and dated by the Instructor as well as the employee as proof of attendance.

Handouts are also provided as future reference to your employees. This positive safety approach displays your company's proactive position to the employee as well as your customers.

Recoverable damages in an employee liability lawsuit can include economic and non-economic damages:
