Recourse
Recourse means payment of compensation to others than the directly injured party. Recourse is relevant in connection with notifications of illness due to accidents, e.g. traffic accidents.
Employers’ recourse
An employer may obtain compensation, if an employee is on sick leave due to an accident involving a responsible tortfeasor.
Compensation is obtainable for expenses to e.g. the employment of a substitute or overtime payment to other employees. This means both cost saving and maintaining the employment of an employee, being on sick leave, despite a long absence due to sickness.
