It will be correct to report the death as a work accident since
the death of the insured employee takes place at the workplace.
In the case of a truck driver with H1N1 (swine flu), the 21st
Civil Chamber of the Supreme Court of Appeals has accepted H1N1 as
a work accident with its 15.04.2019 dated, 2018/5018 E.-2019/2931
K. numbered decision. In this case, the truck driver died of H1N1
following his return from abroad. So it is highly likely that he
picked up the virus during duty. In such a case, the defect rates
of the parties need to be discussed to consider the employers'
obligation of indemnity.
