Article 1(2) of the Convention. Payment of benefits abroad. The Committee notes the Government’s indication in its report that, from 1 January 2019, workers or their dependants may claim for a lump-sum compensation due to employment injury from the Accident Compensation Commission of Fiji (ACCF) under the Accident Compensation Act, 2017. The Committee further observes from Part 2, Division 2 [Reg 6] of the Accident Compensation (Employment Accident) Regulations, 2018 that an employer must pay the worker who suffers any personal injury as a result of an accident arising out of and in the course of employment a weekly payment of two-thirds of the worker’s previous earnings for up to 260 weeks. The Committee requests the Government to indicate whether the payment of the lump-sum compensation made by the ACCF and the weekly payments made by employers to victims of employment injuries is due, when they reside outside of Fiji, to: (a) national workers and their dependants; and (b) foreign workers and their dependants.
