    AjitabhGoel
    This document discusses the doctrine of notional extension as it relates to compensation for injured workers. It examines how the doctrine is applied in India under the Employee State Insurance Act of 1948 and the Workmen's Compensation Act of 1923. The doctrine provides that employment begins and ends with a notional extension of time and space to include means of access and egress to the workplace. The document also explores how similar concepts are applied in the United States, requiring a causal connection between injury and increased employment risk, and in the United Kingdom, where compensation helps workers injured due to negligence or inadequate training. Lastly, it proposes a transitional framework to discuss empirical theories and case studies on these legal issues.

    A Comparative Analysis on Notional Extention

    In the words of Dr. B.R. Ambedkar, Bread a house, adequate clothing, education, good health
    and above all the right to work with dinity on the worlds boulevards.
    The principal behind compensation to the injured worker under the Employee State Insurance
    Act 1948 and Workmens Compensation Act, 1923 is considered according to the Doctrine of
    Notional Extension.
    Section 3(1) Workmen Compensation Act, 1923 provides that the injury must be caused to
    workman by an accident arising out of and in the course of employment. Employment does not
    necessarily ends when the tool down signal is given or when the workman leaves the actual
    workshop. There is a notional extension at both the entry and exit time and space. As
    employment may end or may begin not only when the employee begins to work or leaves his
    tools but also when he used the means of access and egress to and from the place of employment.
    The first part of the writing includes the position of the doctrine in United States of America. An
    injured worker is entitled to workers compensation benefits only if the injury arose out of and in
    the course of employment. The first part of this requirement, arising out of employment,
    ensures that there is a causal connection between the work and the injury. Usually the employee
    has the burden of proving that the injury was caused by exposure to an increased risk from
    employment.
    The second part of the writing includes the position of doctrine in United Kingdom.Workers
    compensation in the United Kingdom helps workers and their families to claim for compensation
    in the case of injuries, illness or death that occurs due to carelessness, negligence or inadequate
    training in any workplace. In the workplace, accidents can occur very unexpectedly and
    consequently, they can affect the life of the workers and disrupt the work. Carelessness is the
    prime cause of accidents, which could result in injury or even death.
    The last part of the writing suggests a transitional framework on legal issues on the aforesaid
    subject by discussing empirical theories and case studies.
