Workmen's
Compensation Insurance provides indemnity to Employer for
Death or disability of their employees at work for which the
Employer is liable under the Labour Law. Most Workmen's Compensation
laws allow the worker the choice between accepting compensation
under the law and instituting a civil action against the employer
for damages based upon the latter's negligence. Although this
option is seldom exercised, it is nevertheless customary for
Workmen's Compensation policies to extend cover against such
civil actions by an Employer's Liability policy. Insurance
cover under the policy may be extended to include Medical
Expenses and Repatriation of Human remains.
