Q.2 Define an “Accident” as given in the workmen’s Compensation Act, 1923. When it is said to arise out of
and in the course of an employment?
Ans ACCIDENT
The word Accident has not been defined in the Act. It means any unexpected mishap, untoward
event or consequences brought about by an unanticipated act which could not be provided
against. Whether particular occurrence is accident or not it must be looked upon not only from
the point of view of the person who cause it but also from the point of view of the person who
suffers it.

ARISING OUT OF AND IN THE COURSE OF EMPLOYMENT:


The expression “arising out of “ suggests the cause of accident and the expression “in the
course of” points out to the place and circumstances under which the accident takes place and
the time when it occurred. A Casual connection between the injury by accident and the
employment is necessary. The direct connection between the injury caused by an accident and
the employment of the workman is always not essential. The words arising out of employment
are understood to mean that during the course of the employment injury has resulted from some
risk incidental to the duties of the service which unless engaged in the duty owing to the master
it is reasonable to believe the workman would not otherwise have suffered. The employee mush
show that he was at the time of injury engaged in the employer’s business or in furthering that
business and was not doing something for his own benefit. In the course of employment refers
to the period of the employment and the place of work it is neither limited to the period of actual
labour not includes acts necessitated by the workman’s employment. The employee mush show
that he was doing something in discharge of a duty to his employer directly or indirectly imposed
upon him by his contract of service.

In State of Rajasthan V Ram Prasad and another the workman died due to natural lightening
while working at the site. It was held by the Supreme Court that in order that workman may
succeed in his claim for compensation, it is no doubt true that the accident must have casual
connection with the employment and arise out of it but if the workman is injured as a result of
natural force of lightening though it in itself has no connection with employment of deceased
Smt. Gita, the employer can still be held liable if the claimant shows that the employment
exposed the deceased to such injury. In the present case the deceased was working on the site
and would not have been exposed to such hazard of lightening had she not been working so.
Therefore the appellant was held liable to pay compensation.

Q.5.
a) Gratuity when becomes payable?
b) Who are entitled for payment of Gratuity?

Ans

necessary where the termination of the employment of any employee is due to death or
disablement.

b) Who are entitled for payment of Gratuity?

payable to him shall be paid to his nominee or if no nomination has been made, to his heirs
and where any such nominees or heirs is a minor, same for the benefit of such minor in such
bank or other financial institution, as may be prescribed until such minor attains majority.

Q.4 What is procedure for determination and recovery of dues from employer under

2) Accumulations in any provident fund standing to the credit of the employees who become
members of the Fund or, as the case may be the Insurance fund established under the
Scheme or, the Insurance Scheme; or
3) Accumulations to the credit of an employee exempted under section 17(1), 17(1-A) and
17(2) of the Act; or
4) Damages recoverable under Section 14-B; i.e., for default in the payment of any contribution
to the fund, family pension fund or the insurance fund or in the transfer of accumulation in
any provident fund or in the transfer of accumulations to the credit of an employee exempted
under section 17(1), 17(1-A) and 17(2) of the Act; or

Bank, notwithstanding the fact that the demand in respect of the employer’s contribution amount
of the employer’s contribution has not been determined, no proceedings for recovery can be
taken under this section.
