Supreme Court allows workers' compensation claim as inheritance right under Work Accident Act.

The Supreme Court dismissed the cassation appeal against a lower court ruling awarding workers' compensation to the heirs of a deceased employee. The plaintiffs argued that the right to one-time compensation belonged to the estate of the worker who died in a work accident, while the Social Insurance Institution contested the amount based on a medical assessment of the deceased's disability. The court held that the statutory right to compensation passes to the heirs upon the worker's death and affirmed the lower court's application of the Work Accident Act despite constitutional concerns regarding the Social Insurance Institution's liability.
