i am a contractor working on a housing project,
working on electrical upgrades in tenanted apartments,
a week ago one of the tenants informed me that her son had touched an exposed electrical socket ,(one of my coworkers had not refixed the socket cover)
the mother claimed the child had been badly burned
she would not let me see the child and she did not seek medical attention for the child,
now one week later she wants to claim compensation for her childs injury,
i have since seen the child and he is not burned or injured in any way that i can see,
i do not believe the child was injured but the mother informs me she will take this further if she is not financially compensated,
what can i do about this ?
