As Labor Law states:
Article 144
Where a worker sustains a work-related injury or contracts an occupational disease, the employer shall pay for the cost of his treatment in a government or private local medical center until he recovers or is proven disabled. Treatment shall include costs of residence in a hospital or sanatorium, surgical operations, x-ray and medical diagnosis, the purchase of medicines and rehabilitation equipment, and the supply of artificial limbs and other prosthetic appliances for any person who is declared disabled. In addition to the foregoing, the employer shall pay the cost of any transport required in connection with the worker’s treatment.
Article 145
Where an injury prevents a worker from carrying out his work, the employer shall pay him a cash allowance equal to his full pay throughout the period of treatment or for a period of six months, whichever is shorter. Where the treatment lasts for more than six months, the allowance shall be reduced by one-half for a further period of six months or until the worker fully recovers, is declared disabled, or dies, whichever occurs first.
Article 146
The cash allowance referred to in the preceding Article shall be calculated on the basis of the last wage received (for monthly, weekly, daily or hourly workers), and on the basis of the average daily wage paid to in Article 57 (for those paid on piecemeal basis).
Article 147
On finalization of treatment, the attending physician shall compile a report in two copies- one to be delivered to the worker and the other to the employer- in which he shall specify the nature and cause of the injury, the date of its occurrence, the extent to which it is work-related, the period of treatment, whether it is permanent or other disability, the degree of disability (if any), whether it is total or partial, andthe extent to which the disabled worker is fit to resume his work despite the disability. Article 148 Where a dispute arises as to the extent of a worker's physical fitness for work, degree of disability or any other matter related to his injury or treatment, the matter shall be referred to the Ministry of Health through the competent labor department. The Ministry of Health shall, whenever such a dispute is referred to it, set up a medical board consisting of three government medical officers to determine the extent of the worker's medical fitness for employment, the degree of his disability or any other matter related to the injury or treatment. The board may call in any experts it believes capable of helping it. Its decision shall be final and shall be submitted to the labor department in order that the measures necessary for its implementation may be taken.
Article 153
An injured worker shall not be entitled to any compensation for an injury or disability that did not result in his death if the inquiries carried out by the competent authorities established that he willfully brought about his own injury with the intention of committing suicide or of obtaining compensation or sick leave, or for any other reason; or if, at the time of the occurrence, he was under the influence of a narcotic drug or alcohol; or if he intentionally violated the safety instructions posted at conspicuous positions in the workplace; or if his injury or disability was the result of gross and deliberate misconduct on his part; or if he refused for no good reason to submit to medical examination or to undergo the treatment ordered by a medical board set up pursuant to Article 148. In such circumstances, the employer shall not be required to provide treatment for the worker or to pay him any cash allowance.
