top of the form:is this a work related injury? if an uninsured painter comes into my factory in maryland and falls, he's mine. if an uninsured carpenter comes in and wacks off a few fingers, he's mine. the employer is first, but if there is no insurance, he is mine.i do not know what happens when there are work related injuries to international companies in international places, but unless "LONGSHORE AND HARBOR WORKERS' COMPENSATION ACT" has been revoked, in the usa, you own the broken person. read the regulation.
If the uninsured painter falls off a ladder because he is stoned and is showing his mate how he can stand on one leg on the top of the ladder, you are going to pay for all his medical bills, rehabilitation, his salary while he spends several year getting fit to work again?
