When is an accident considered to be in the “course of employment”?
Based on Presidential Decree No. 626 of the Labor Code of the Philippines, it legally encompasses several specific scenarios. An accident qualifies if happening actively at the workplace or executing explicit outside orders. Normal commuting accidents and incidents during company-sponsored activities are also fully legally covered. Even unfortunate injuries sustained ministering to personal comfort firmly fall within the employment course. 18-May-26About Nicolas and De Vega Law Offices
