A man in his 30s who worked more than 300 deliveries a month at a mart died after leaving the company, and I have seen many articles that the court acknowledged the causality of the work.
A, who worked at a local supermarket in Bucheon, Gyeonggi Province, was diagnosed with a brain hemorrhage in April of last year and died a month later.
It was a delivery job at the mart for about 3 months before Mr. A suddenly collapsed.
He only took one day off during the week, and he is said to have worked from 11 am to 11 pm every day, excluding two hours for lunch and dinner.
He often had to deliver 20 kg of rice or bundles of bottled water to three or four storey villas or houses without elevators.
The amount delivered in this way exceeded 300 cases per month.
Initially, the Korea Workers' Compensation and Welfare Corporation did not acknowledge a causal relationship with the job, saying that Mr. A had become ill a week after leaving the company.
However, the Incheon District Court ruled that the disposition of the Korea Workers' Compensation and Welfare Service was illegal, saying 'A's death was an industrial accident with a causal relationship between chronic work load and disease'.
