Columns什麼是工傷賠償?

July 11, 2019by Shon Jeng

工傷賠償是受傷者在工作期間,因工作受傷或生病而獲得的賠償。在加州,所有雇員須購買工傷保險,未參加工傷保險的,視為違法行為。工傷賠償保險會根據雇員的受傷情況提供相應的賠償。

工傷賠償不看受傷由誰造成。即使工傷是由雇員本身引起,只要發生在工作及雇傭期間,同樣看作是工傷。
案例展示*:一名鋼壓工在工作時,看到一塊鋼板卡在了衝壓鉸鏈上,導致整個機器被卡住。他沒有去斷開設備電源,直接用手把卡住的鋼板移開。卡住的鋼板移開後,機器恢復了正常運轉,而他的右手卻被機器碾壓。
本案中,該名鋼壓工是在工作期間受傷(操作鋼壓機時手部受傷),屬於工傷,可以獲得雇主的工傷賠償款。雖然受傷是因這名工人的個人疏忽造成,但只要發生在工作期間,同樣視為工傷。
