The calculation of compensation under the Workers' Compensation Act, 1923, in India, including Ahmedabad, is based on the nature of the injury, the monthly wages of the worker, and the worker's age. Here's a simplified breakdown:
- In case of death, the amount of compensation will be 50% of the monthly wages of the deceased worker multiplied by the relevant factor, or an amount of INR 80,000, whichever is more.
- In case of permanent total disablement, the amount of compensation will be 60% of the monthly wages of the injured worker multiplied by the relevant factor, or an amount of INR 90,000, whichever is more.
The relevant factor depends on the age of the worker and it can be found in Schedule IV of the Act.
Please note that the monthly wages are subject to a maximum limit set by the government. As of 2021, the maximum limit is INR 15,000 per month.
It's important to consult with a legal professional or the local labor department to ensure accurate calculation and compliance with the Act.
