Industrial accident attorney, an industrial accident occurred.

A fall accident at a construction site is a representative work-related disaster and is in principle subject to industrial accident processing.

When an accident occurs, the employer cannot arbitrarily judge and process whether to recognize industrial accident, and must immediately fulfill the obligations stipulated by law.

First, the employer must take immediate emergency measures and treatment measures for the worker.

Subsequently, they must follow the obligation to report the occurrence of industrial accident to the Korea Workers' Compensation and Welfare Service.

At this time, medical care application form, accident report, labor contract relationship materials, etc. must be submitted, and it is important to truthfully describe the circumstances of the accident.

In particular, since fall accidents may be accompanied by issues of violation of safety obligations under the Industrial Safety and Health Act, if legal safety measures such as installation of work platforms and fall prevention nets were inadequate, the possibility of administrative disposition or criminal liability application must also be reviewed.

Accordingly, in such cases, it is important to consult with an industrial accident attorney from the early response stage to check the scope of the employer's legal responsibility, response to the investigation, and possibility of future disputes.

Through the assistance of an industrial accident attorney, please organize the facts, review whether safety management obligations were fulfilled, and minimize unnecessary legal risks.
