A labour was hired to work for white washing the house. While working he fell down and died. What would be legal consequences for the same and how will compensation be decided for him. He died as he did not take safety precautions and did not wear a belt for safety.

Dear PRIYA,
I think the information given is not sufficient.
Whether the house is owned by the person who engaged the victim for doing the white-washing?
If so, whether the owner alone occupies the house or any portion of which is let out?
If yes is the answer for the first part, whether any business or commercial or trade activity is carried on in or from that house?
Whether the victim was engaged for the work on contract basis through a painting contractor or himself an independent contractor or on daily wage basis?

Regardless of if employee was full time or part time. If he was covered in venture of him being employed that party is liable. Also just allow for them to investigate.
We shouldnt shy away in taking responsiblity, in this case the person is dead. If he doesnt have any other personal covers then there should be assistance given to the family.
Hope this is healpful.

These issues need attention of all. Practical and personal experience throws some light on this. In my view there is much relevance for the statement of Mr Umakanthan.M Additional Commissioner of Labour (RTD). Regards.

Yes,
immediately what have you done on that issue....
1. Fir recorded. Or not.
There is one sufficient act is existing in india to cover all the building and other construction workers. Since2006... Any construction or building worker dies due to accident at workplace willl be given 2 lakh rupees by the andhrapradesh building and other construction workers welfare board. Hyderabad..
Now it was relaxed that any registerd building worker dies not only in work place or any where can be given the above amount to the bereaved family. Ths bocw act now in existence not only in a.p but also in tamilnadu and kerala and some north states also.
In the above incident the accidental death occred due to lapse of safety measures sufficently. So the building contractor or mastry as well as the owner of the building will be held responsible for the death of the worker.
Take the advise of the near by labour dept. Officials to help the poor demised bui;lding worker. There is even eligiblity is given to the died building worker unregisterd by the labour dept. Also.
Take pains to help the poor.
