If a person dies as a result of an accident at work or an occupational disease, Death Benefit may be payable to his/her dependants. In order to qualify, the deceased person must have been in employment which is insurable at PRSI Class A, B, D, J or M.

Death Benefit includes: - Widow's or Widower's Pension - Orphan's Pension - Dependent Parents Pension - Funeral Grant 1.1 Widow's or Widower's Pension If your spouse dies as a result of an accident at work or an occupational disease, or s/he was getting a Disablement Pension assessed at 50% or more at the time of his/her death you may be entitled to a Widow's or Widower's Pension. The pension is paid as long as you remain widowed (that is, you do not remarry or live with someone as husband and wife). It is not affected by any income you may have. An increase is payable for child dependants. A child dependant must be under age 18, normally living with you, or a child aged between 18 and 22 in full-timed education. Payment will continue until the end of the academic year in which s/he reaches age 22. 1.2 Orphan's Pension An Orphan's Pension may be paid for child(ren) where the parent, step-parent or person who supported the child(ren) dies as a result of an accident at work or an occupational disease or if s/he was getting a Disablement Pension assessed at 50% or more at the time of his/her death. A child is considered an orphan if: - both parents are dead or - one parent is dead, unknown, has abandoned or refused or failed to provide for the child and the other parent is unknown, has abandoned or has refused or failed to provide for the child. The pension should be claimed by the orphan's guardian. 1.3 Dependent Parent(s) Pension If a person dies as a result of an accident at work or an occupational disease or was getting Disablement Pension assessed at 50% or more at the time of his/her death and leaves a dependent parent(s), a pension may be paid to each parent.

Réamhrá Má fhaigheann duine bás de bharr timpiste ag an obair nó galar ceirde, d’fheadfaí Sochar Báis (faoin Scéim um Shochair Dhíobhálacha Ceirde) a íoc lena gcéile nó bpáirtnéir sibhialta marthanach nó lena gcleithiúnaí linbh. D’fhéadfaí Sochar Báis a íoc, chomh maith, ag tráth a mbáis, má bhí Pinsean Míchumais á fháil acu ar a ndéantar measúnú ar ráta 50% nó níos airde, gan aird ar chúis an bháis. Áirítear leis an Scéim um Shochar Báis: - Pinsean Baintrí, Baintreach Fir nó Páirtnéara Shibhialta Mharthanaigh - Pinsean Dílleachta - Deontas Sochraide Rialacha Pinsean Baintrí, Baintreach Fir nó Páirtnéara Shibhialta Mharthanaigh Íoctar seo le céile nó le páirtnéir shibhialta marthanach duine a fuair bás mar thoradh ar thimpiste ag an obair, ar ghalar ceirde nó le duine ag a raibh Pinsean Míchumais á fháil ar a ndéantar measúnú ar ráta 50% nó níos airde, ag tráth a mbáis. Ní féidir leat an pinsean a fháil má phóstar athuair thú, má iontrálann tú páirtnéireacht shibhialta nó má chomhchónaíonn tú le duine eile. Ní dhéanann aon ioncam a d’fhéadfadh bheith agat difear don phinsean. Íoctar méaduithe i leith leanaí cáilithe leis an bpinsean. Gearrtar cáin ar an bpinsean. Ní féidir Pinsean Baintrí, Baintreach Fir nó Páirtnéara Shibhialta Mharthanaigh faoin Scéim um Shochar Báis a íoc ag an tráth céanna le Pinsean Ranníocach Baintrí, Baintreach Fir nó Páirtnéara Shibhialta Mharthanaigh.

Ba cheart do chaomhnóir an dílleachta iarratas a dhéanamh ar an íocaíocht. Deontas Sochraide Má shásaíonn an duine marbh na coinníollacha, féadfar Deontas Sochraide a íoc leis an duine a íocann as costais na sochraide. Ní ghearrtar cáin ar Dheontas Sochraide. Ní féidir Deontas Sochraide a íoc mar aon le Deontas Méala.
