Occupational Asthma
Compensation Claims
Our no-win-no-fee solicitors help you secure compensation if occupational asthma has been caused by your working environment.
Occupational Asthma Compensation Claims
Recent data shows that around 1.9 million workers faced work-related ill health in 2024/25.
This includes many respiratory conditions such as occupational asthma. National clinical pathways from NICE indicate that occupational asthma accounts for around 1 in 6 cases of adult-onset asthma in the UK.
Claims are common in industries handling grain, flour, wood dust or isocyanates. Mechanics and spray painters face particular risks. In one reported case, a factory worker received approximately £32,000 in compensation after developing asthma from chemical fume exposure at work.
Employers must follow the Control of Substances Hazardous to Health Regulations (COSHH). When they fail to protect staff, we help you take action.
Mayiclaim is here to help. Our no-win-no-fee solicitors have extensive experience in industrial disease cases and can support your occupational asthma claim today.

Frequently Asked Questions
Am I eligible for occupational asthma claims?
You may be eligible if your condition was diagnosed by a medical professional and is directly linked to workplace exposure. We help demonstrate that your employer failed to properly control respiratory hazards, as required by health and safety regulations. Strong medical reports and a clear work history will form the core evidence for your case.
What is the time limit for claiming compensation?
You generally have a three-year time limit to start your claim. This period begins from the date you first knew, or should have known, that your asthma was related to your work environment. We recommend seeking our expert legal advice as soon as possible to ensure your documentation is filed in time.
How much compensation can I receive for work-related asthma?
Financial payouts vary depending on the severity of your breathing condition and its impact on your daily life. Recent settlements for chronic cases typically range from approximately £12,990 to £52,490. Our solicitors carefully assess your specific health impairment to secure the maximum possible amount for you.
Can I still claim if I currently work for the same employer?
Yes, ongoing employment does absolutely not prevent you from seeking compensation. Employers are legally required to hold liability insurance to cover these exact situations, meaning claims are made against the insurer rather than the business directly. This allows you to protect your health and financial future without fear of losing your job.
How does your no-win-no-fee agreement work?
This legal arrangement allows you to pursue justice without having to pay any upfront professional costs. If your case is unsuccessful, you simply pay nothing. When we win your case, our legal fees are deducted from your final settlement, ensuring the entire process remains completely financially risk-free for you.
