Easy-to-understand revision of industrial accident certification standards for “brain and heart diseases” and practical responses by companies V163 Japanese Laws DVD Lecturer: Ken Takahashi

After a company is certified as a worker's compensation worker, it may be held liable for civil damages!

Deaths from overwork among workers have become a social problem, and for the first time in 20 years, the standards for recognizing workers' compensation in cases of cerebral or myocardial infarction have been revised.
1. Obvious overload due to work that affects the development of brain and heart diseases,
2. The basic concept of overload in the period close to the onset of symptoms (short-term overwork) and accumulation of fatigue over a long period of time (long-term overwork) has not changed, but even if overtime hours do not reach the ``death from overwork'' level of 80 hours per month, irregular work and physical strain can be taken into consideration more flexibly, and the number of workers' compensation claims is expected to increase.

In this DVD, Labor Consultant Takahashi, a former Health, Labor and Welfare official, explains the points of revision of the industrial accident certification standards, the concept of certification standards, and points to be careful about when dealing with companies.
Furthermore, we have recorded a conversation on the theme of dealing with companies with attorney Okazaki, who handles industrial accident cases for companies.
