Legal Assistance (Personal Injury) Scheme
Any NIPSA member who sustains a personal injury as a result of an accident, whether or not this happens in the course of duty, contracts a disease at work or is injured as the result of negligence of a third party has access to the union’s Legal Assistance (Personal Injury) Scheme.
Access to this scheme is via the Executive Officer (Membership & Legal Services) at NIPSA Headquarters.
