I have a well known friend on here who has injured their shoulder which may have occurred due to the air conditioning at work blowing out cold air onto their shoulder which they then slept on and injured. Could they sure the air con company for no warning about the effects of cold air? They were previously in excellent shape physically(corrrrrrrr!!!)

Re: Can the air con company be sued for no warning on air?
Well Nattie, I wonder.... I think the effects of cold are noted to have ill effects on your health follwoing information gained from years of being round at my Grandam like 'dont sit on that cold step you will get piles' etc, so I am sure that if she wasnt warned of the effects and then went onto injure herself, she should have a fairly watertight case...Neither a borrower nor a lender be;

We could have a new case in which when you look up, the air con will have a warning, "Cold air could cause muscular discomfort!"Comment

When you were a child and went outside, did your Mother tell you to put a coat on? Did she tuck you in at night really tightly when it was cold outside?
Is this serious or does this person really need a warning about sitting in the cold?Comment

What my mother told me or did not tell me, is meaningless in a court of law. Do you know my mother? Fine upstanding woman and she has a great son but we digress of course.
Is this the lamp post? Sorry I have posted in the wrong place following bottles of cheap czeck lager...say that ten times when youre drunk.

I haven't asked silly questions, it's a matter of common sense.
Sit in cold, get cold - easy, you don't need warnings about it.Comment

Incidently, my brother and 2 of my friends are air con installation engineers - i shall enquire wether or not there should be any health and safety warnings in areas where air con is installed.
Where theres blame theres a claim eh :-)Comment

Take the matter up with your employer under Health and Safety if it affects your working environment
I used to sit next to one and it gives you a killer neckache, It soon got shifted after a couple of days of thatComment
