Summary/Abstract: In this paper, the author points out the problems that arise in the case of compensation for damages caused by an injury at work, or due to death of a worker, as a result of an injury at work. This institute is regulated by a positive legislative framework, but in practice many problems occur when trying to get adequate satisfaction for injuries that occurred during the performance of regular work activities, because employers (of course there are exceptions) try in every way to minimize compensation that should have belonged to the worker. The purpose of that compensation should be to restore the former state of the worker, more precisely, monetary satisfaction for the physical damage suffered, as well as the physical and mental pain suffered, but this is most often not the case. The question of this compensation is particularly sensitive in the case of the death of a worker, which occurs as a result of an injury at work, when that compensation belongs to the immediate family members of the injured worker and when the question arises as to what is an adequate compensation that should be some kind of compensation for the loss of a loved one
