Legal basis: Regulations on Industrial Injury Insurance
Article 32 Workers with work-related injuries may install artificial limbs, orthotics, artificial eyes, dentures, wheelchairs and other assistive devices due to their daily life or employment needs, and the required expenses shall be paid from the work-related injury insurance fund according to the standards stipulated by the state.
Article 33 If an employee suffers from an accident or occupational disease at work and needs to be suspended from work to receive medical treatment for work-related injuries, the original salary and welfare benefits will remain unchanged during the paid suspension, and the unit where he works will pay him monthly. The paid shutdown period generally does not exceed 12 months. If the injury is serious or the situation is special, it may be appropriately extended upon confirmation by the Municipal Labor Ability Appraisal Committee with districts, but the extension time shall not exceed 12 months. After assessing the disability level, the injured workers shall stop the original treatment and enjoy the disability treatment in accordance with the relevant provisions of this chapter. Workers with work-related injuries who still need treatment after the expiration of paid shutdown shall continue to enjoy medical treatment for work-related injuries.
Workers with work-related injuries who can't take care of themselves need care during the paid shutdown period, and their units are responsible for it.
