The judgment referred to in the WC Case Francis D. Costa document is against the injured person, which contradicts the opinion expressed by Mr. Madhu T.K. I request Mr. Harikrishnan to review it and provide a Supreme Court judgment favoring the injured workman.

It is once again reiterated that Mr. Madhu T.K. reaffirmed notional extension in favor of the injured person but referred to a judgment of the Madras High Court different from his, saying "Tamil Nadu State Road Corporation Ltd Vs Smt. Sivakumari & Ors [LLN(1) 2010 (P) 414 (Madras HC)]." It is requested to refer to a suitable judgment in favor of the injured person on notional extension.

Dear Sir,

One of my brothers met with an accident and died while going to the company around 5 AM, but his shift started at 6 AM. He was the only son in his family and the breadwinner for them. His parents have asked the company for some compensation, but the company rejected it, stating that the accident occurred outside of company premises, so they are not liable to pay anything. Does this situation fall under the ECA (Employee Compensation Act)? Can his parents receive compensation from the company since there is no one else to take care of them?

Please suggest what actions they can take.

Dear All,

Regarding construction workers, if a vehicle is involved in an accident while going to or coming back from the site, do the employees or any third person fall under the Workers' Compensation (WC) policy? Is there a defined timeframe for the policy's applicability? For example, if a contractor's site vehicle leaves the office and gets into an accident after two hours, would it still be covered by WC even if the vehicle was being used for personal reasons at the time of the accident?

Thank you.

If the vehicle was used for personal use at the time of accident, how can Workman Compensation be applicable. Let them claim under MACT
