Why does Kyoto Animation have to pay billions of dollars to the dead and injured employees?

I feel like I'll start with the conclusion: legally, there is a high probability that Kyoto Animation will not have to take the money to compensate itself. Either ** (labor accident insurance) compensation, or arsonist compensation. As for human favors, it depends on how they decide, and billions should not be.

The only case in which Kyoto Animation has to pay for it out of its own pocket is that they have not purchased workers' compensation insurance (i.e., workers' compensation insurance in Chinese) for their employees in advance.

In the event of a labor accident, the company is usually liable for compensation. However, it can be exempted when you enroll in workers' compensation insurance.

As a regular company, the likelihood that KyoAni will not pay employees for labor disasters is relatively low, but I am not worried about this.

The problem is that it is more difficult to do so if it is ultimately determined that the arsonist is liable and the prisoner and his family are unable to pay.

This brings us to Japan's work-related injury insurance system, which is what we call work-related injury insurance.

The coverage of this insurance is quite large. It is divided into "business disaster" and "commuting disaster". The scope of business accident coverage mainly refers to [injuries and deaths caused by work, etc.], such as accidents in the company, or accidents when running sales outside the company.

However, when you go to the company during non-working hours, accidents caused by not working are generally not counted.

A commuting disaster is an accident that occurs while commuting to or from work, or while moving while working. The definition of a commuting disaster is also very detailed in terms of various situations, such as running out to fish on the way, or running away in an accident. You can take a look at the picture below to feel it.

Here's what remains unresolved: the incident in KyoAni may also be identified as a third-party act disaster. That is, the death or injury is caused by the actions of people other than the company and employees.

If the disaster occurred due to the act of a third party, the third party's obligation to compensate the victim and his or her family is determined, and it is called a third-party act disaster.

Although the main cause of arson this time was arson, if there was a problem with the company's security to allow the prisoners to enter, was there also a responsibility (if there was a liability, the workers' compensation insurance was taken)?

This needs to be judged comprehensively based on a large amount of evidence. It's hard to fully determine who is ultimately responsible for the payout.

But!!! In the exciting news, the Ministry of Health, Labor and Welfare has indicated that it is possible for KyoAni to apply for compensation from workers' compensation insurance. Since a large number of employees are involved this time, there is no need for family members to apply separately, but the company will follow the process uniformly.

Since the cautious Japanese released this statement, it shows that the results of the process are still worth looking forward to. In addition, in consideration of the damage and impact of this incident, Kyoto will provide special emergency treatment after KyoAni submits the application.

There is also a related follow-up, many of which are not mentioned.

In fact, after this incident, KyoAni specially pressed the list of the dead and did not make it public for a long time. It took half a month before it was gradually released.

This move is to allow the family of the deceased to avoid the interruption of ** interviews before and during the funeral.

The victims announced so far are all employees who have obtained the consent of their families and whose funerals have been completed.

Even after encountering such an incident, KyoAni's three views and thoughtfulness made me almost cry.

Because that's what they're supposed to do.

Because what he did before was too much of a failure.

Because this cost is really not particularly much.

Their animations should have bugs.

The dead and injured employees should have been held responsible.

She's really unworthy.

Then you can buy them all without losing money.

I don't think it's going to compensate so much money.

I think Kyoto Animation still has shortcomings.

I don't think Kyoto Animation will go out of business after the death of 33 artists, but it will cause some impact and loss.

It's definitely not going to go out of business. But depression for a while is for sure. Then it is necessary to strengthen all the safety facilities of the company. Then it's about enhancing the attraction of talent.

It won't go out of business, but it may languish for a while, after all, after losing so many generals, it will take time to find good artists again.

I don't think so, years of operation have laid a very deep foundation for it, and it won't be finished, but there will definitely be a period of silence.

Not going to go out of business. It does cause certain impacts and losses. Some works will be cancelled for any reason. I'm still worried about the destruction of anime materials and manuscripts.

This can't be determined, after all, Kyoto Animation is the top force in Japanese animation, and although it has suffered heavy losses this time, there is still hope for a comeback.

No, such a strong foundation, it will not fall down, there will definitely be losses, but you can also find a way to recover.

It's hard to say at the moment, but I just want the original manuscript to have a backup, and if even the original manuscript is gone, then it may really collapse.

It won't go out of business, after all, Japan's animation industry is very developed, but it will definitely bring huge impact and property loss.

It will not go out of business, it can only be said that it has caused a big impact, but it is not a collapse.

You are responsible for the death or injury of your employees.

I feel like they should be given a real say.

Because he wants to make up for the greater result.

That's what we love about KyoAni.

I think there are a lot of problems with employees.

Didn't such an employee appear?

Because there was a major safety incident.

This will not be the case.

Why did this happen?

How will I be compensated for this incident?

Why is there so much controversy in this case?

In fact, the reason why the verdict of this case has not been pronounced for a long time is mainly because the two sides have been entangled in the topic of plagiarism, we all know that Japan attaches great importance to copyright, and if Kyoto Animation really has plagiarism, it means that they may even lose the lawsuit in this lawsuit. Of course, for crimes such as intentional homicide and endangering social and public safety, Aoba has no way to escape.

LiabilityThe arsonist will compensate all the responsibility to give an account to the victim's family.

The behavior of the suspect in this arson case is very bad, and it has also caused serious losses, and in the end, the suspect did not have enough money to compensate, so the final compensation was carried out by ZTE.

It is definitely unrealistic to want the suspect to compensate for the damage caused this time, because he is a lonely anime **, so there is no money to compensate at all, so the compensation this time is mainly borne by the Japanese side**.

The main liability for this accident should be the arson perpetrator, because the suspect's behavior was very bad, and he also deliberately damaged the reputation of the company, and also brought great economic losses to the company.
