We are a construction company and consultants and manufacturers' of Tunnel Boring Machines. As per Company Policy, Sick leave can be 7 nos in a year.
But if someone meets with an accident and is adivsed rest for 20 days, he shall not fall under the purview of serious bodily injury as per Workman Compensation act Sec-10(1), but still we have to pay him half salary for the period he produces medical. How can we term this kind of leave?
Secondly if the period of temporary total/partial disability increases to say 1 year, then how can we compensate the workman. Insurance company says that all the payments made shall be done only in the Court of W/c Commissioner. What if the work is completed before the expiry of said disablement.
Still further it is also learnt that Medi-Claim is not provided under W/C Act and Insurance Policy thereby. Any Opinion is welcome.
