HSE stops charging staff for certs in personal injuries cases
A solicitor had highlighted how HSE workers — unlike the vast majority of employees seeking certificates of lost earnings because of an injury — were being charged €123 for the paperwork, necessary for any claim being made to the State’s Injuries Board.
A spokesperson for the Injuries Board confirmed the charging for the production of such a certificate was very uncommon and that the HSE had applied it at three different stages in recent years.
