A legal comparison between South African, Canadian and Australian workmen's compensation lawJansen van Vuuren, Johanna Petronella 04 1900 (has links)
Workers’ compensation originated internationally because of the need to address
the plight of workers and communities left destitute due to occupationally sustained
disabilities or death. This study examines how the right to no-fault compensation
developed in South Africa in comparison to the comparable law in Canada and
Australia. Specific limitations regarding the right to workers' compensation
pursuant to the South African compensatory laws were identified. Limitations
identified include the persons falling within the ambit of the law, circumstances
creating a right to compensation, the right to claims for increased compensation
uniquely provided for in South African compensatory law and founded in the
negligent conduct of employers as well as common law redress for damages. The
background of the administrative remedy in the form of the right to compensation
for occupational injuries and diseases ought to be seen in the light of the
Constitution of the Republic of South Africa 1996. / Mercantile Law / LL.M.
