The purpose of this compensation is to help people whose health has been damaged by an occupational accident or occupational disease to cope in everyday life and to make sure they have an income. The obligation to pay compensation for damage lies firstly with the employer through whose fault damage to health was caused.
The Social Insurance Board may be contacted if the employer has been wound up and has no legal successor.
