damage to my companys van i am getting the blame where do i stand?
hi guys wondering if you can help me with where i stand on this matter-
i am a hydraulic engineer working for a global company called Pirtek, we work within the strictest health and safety laws thus keeping myself and others safe at all times.i was working in a yard with inadequate space and with not very knowledgeable employees taking an implement off of the machine in question when it slipped off the machine landed on the props the machine driver had setup and rolling over onto the sliding door of my van. i have received a report from the site i was working at which so happens to be an old employer of mine so we get on well, but they are implying that it was all my fault, suggesting that i said to use unsuitable props which i had no part in and that the manner i was working in was unsafe. they have said there was two employees present supervising me when there was only one the driver of the machine, and basically telling my company that my account of what happened is a lie. PLEASE HELP as i have no idea where to take this i have wrote the company an email stating my concerns of their account of what supposedly happened. i also have a witness who is a driver for the company who told me he was talking to the machine driver who was bragging that he had damaged a 15 plate Mercedes van and that he didn't care as he is leaving the company in two weeks and not have to hear about it again. what do i do .........
