3. Determination on occurrence and limitation of liability for damages

A. Determination on the occurrence of liability for damages (1) An employer is an incidental duty under the good faith principle accompanying an employment or labor contract, and an employee bears the duty of protection or safety consideration to prepare necessary measures, such as improving a physical environment, so as not to harm life, body, and health in the course of providing labor. In the event an employee suffers damage by violating such a duty, the employer shall be liable for damages due to nonperformance (see, e.g., Supreme Court Decisions 97Da12082, Feb. 23, 199; 201Da60247, Nov. 28, 2013). In addition, in order to recognize liability for damages to an employer for reasons of breach of a duty of protection, the accident is not related to the employee’s work, and it should be predicted or predicted that the accident is ordinarily likely to occur, and the predictability thereof shall be determined by considering the specific circumstances at the time of the accident (see, e.g., Supreme Court Decisions 9Da56384, Jul. 27, 2001).
