Entsendungen und dauerhafte Auslandsbeschäftigung sind inzwischen ein weltweites Phänomen. Grenzüberschreitende Freizügigkeit bedarf aber der Begleitung durch grenzüberschreitende soziale Sicherung. Dies gilt auch für das Risiko von Arbeitsunfall und Berufskrankheit. Eine fehlende Koordinierung der nationalen Sozialrechtsordnungen und des Internationalen Privatrechts birgt hier die Gefahr von Schutzlücken für den Arbeitnehmer und von ungeklärten deliktischen Haftungsrisiken seines Arbeitgebers. Am Beispiel der internationalen Ausrichtung der deutschen gesetzlichen Unfallversicherung und der australischen Workers Compensation untersucht die Autorin diese Risiken umfassend. Mit einem detaillierten Raster praxisnaher Fallbeispiele ermittelt sie Defizite bei Versicherungsschutz, Leistungsrecht und Arbeitgeberhaftung und zeigt konkrete Lösungsmöglichkeiten auf. Bestehende völkerrechtliche Abkommen und das koordinierende Sozialrecht der EG sind als Musterregelungen in die Untersuchung einbezogen.

Workplace injuries are common, avoidable, and unacceptable. The Political Economy of Workplace Injury in Canada reveals how employers and governments engage in ineffective injury prevention efforts, intervening only when necessary to maintain the standard legitimacy. Dr. Bob Barnetson sheds light on this faulty system, highlighting the way in which employers create dangerous work environments yet pour billions of dollars into compensation and treatment. Examining this dynamic clarifies the way in which production costs are passed on to workers in the form of workplace injuries.
