Do you have a court decision requiring a particular person to provide you with maintenance and this person has died as a result of an accident at work or an occupational disease? In this case, you may be provided with an accident insurance benefit – a survivor’s accident rent.
A person to whom a deceased person, who died as a result of an accident at work or an occupational disease, had, at the time of death, a maintenance obligation prescribed by a court and who had not reached pensionable age or been awarded an early old age pension at the time of death, is entitled to a survivor’s accident rent through the employer’s accident insurance.
This entitlement does not arise for persons entitled to a lump sum compensation, i.e. spouses and dependent children.
The entitlement to a survivor’s accident rent expires on the date when the deceased would have reached pensionable age.
You can claim the entitlement by submitting an Application for Awarding a Survivor’s Accident Rent (SK) to a Social Insurance Agency branch.
For more information, see the ACCIDENT INSURANCE – SURVIVOR’S ACCIDENT RENT (SK) section.
