Daily worker industrial accident... I'm being unfairly sued.

Hello, an industrial accident specialized attorney will answer.

You inquired about a daily worker industrial accident.

In the situation you mentioned, it is judged that legal response is necessary, and prompt response through hiring an attorney is recommended.

Under the Industrial Accident Compensation Insurance Act, "workers" include those who perform work under the direction and supervision of an employer, regardless of the form of employment.

That is, if a daily worker is injured during work at the site, they may be subject to industrial accident insurance, and this can be compensated through the Korea Workers' Compensation and Welfare Service, separate from the employer's liability.

The problem is when a civil damages claim (industrial accident lawsuit) is filed in addition to industrial accident compensation.

In this case, the damages liability arises only when the business owner's "violation of duty of care," for example, failure to provide safety equipment or inadequate risk prevention measures, is recognized.

Therefore, you must accurately review whether appropriate safety measures and education were in place at the site and the circumstances of the accident, and it is important to secure objective materials to prove this.

Please request help from a specialized attorney who has experience handling many cases related to daily worker industrial accidents.
