International Labour Legislation

Agreement between Hungary and Italy respecting accident insurance. (19th September, 1909.)

I. Workmen and employees, being Hungarian subjects, who meet with accidents in occupations for which insurance is compulsory under the Italian Act, No. 51, dated 31st January, 1904 (codified text),* and any later Acts amending the same, together with their dependants entitled to compensation, shall have a claim to the same treatment and compensation as Italian subjects under the said Italian Act (codified text) and any later Acts amending the same. On the other hand workmen and employees, being Italian subjects, who meet with accidents in occupations for which insurance is compulsory under the Hungarian Act No. XIX., of 1907,† and any later Acts amending the same, together with their dependants entitled to compensation, shall have a claim to the same treatment and compensation as that granted to Hungarian subjects for industrial accidents by the Hungarian Act No. XIX., of 1907, and any later Acts amending the same.

The mutual right contemplated in the preceding paragraph shall extend also to workmen and employees employed in occupations for which insurance is compulsory, by firms being domiciled or having permanent representation within the territory of one of the two States, who meet with industrial accidents when working outside the territory of both, unless the industrial accidents legislation in force in the State where the accident occurs applies to such workmen or employees.

Similarly, dependants of any such persons having met with an industrial accident shall have a claim to compensation even if at the time of the accident they were not within the territory of that one of the two States where the accident occurred.

In addition, compensation shall be paid to workmen or employees having met with industrial accidents who after the said accident return and live permanently in their own country.

The dependants of a workman or employee having met with an industrial accident shall receive compensation even if they have never resided within the territory of the State where the accident occurred, or if after residing there they betake themselves permanently to a foreign country.

2. The proper authorities of one of the two States having in hand the investigation of an industrial accident sustained by a workman or employee belonging to the other State, shall forward a copy of the report on the investigation within eight days of the issue of the same, to the proper consular authority of the place where the accident occurred.
