Notice of Accident from Employee to Employer - Mandatory under Employee’s Compensation Act

Dear All,

It is common question that in case of accident coming under purview of Employee’s Compensation Act, whether it needs to be informed to employer or not. 

The answer to this query is YES this is because section 10 of Employee’s Compensation Act specifically provides that a notice be given to the employer by the claimant before claiming compensation.


However, it will not be mandatory if we take reference of cases which been decided in High Court of Madhya Pradesh and Bombay wherein it has been mentioned that if the employer has knowledge about the accident and when employer has himself paid medical bills for treatment then in that scenario workman need not to inform employer through notice.
