IMIRONGO CoA - Nzeri 2023 - Booklet#10

The accident suffered by MULINDAHABI Félix did not qualify as a workplace accident because he was not traveling between his regular residence and workplace on a work assignment paid for by the employer, nor was there evidence that the journey was employer-mandated. Therefore, liability rests with the vehicle insurer (SANLAM AG Plc), not the social security fund (RSSB).
