Separate labor-law regulation of general damages for bodily harm - how to resolve potentially adverse effects for employees?
2016
Abstract
There are no relevant reasons to treat labor-law general damages for bodily harm separately from the rules applicable under the Civil Code. In order to prevent potentially adverse effects for the employees, the Civil Code regulation (including the Methodology for Calculation of General Damages for bodily harm) has to be taken into account and the labor-law award of damages adjusted accordingly, if needed.
