Petra Pecková stated that the day before publishing the post, she met with the parents of the girl who survived a serious accident during a school trip but was left severely disabled. According to Pecková, the court attributed responsibility to the school and set damages in the tens of millions of crowns. The school was insured for 10 million, while the remaining amount, according to her, should be covered by the founder – a small municipality that did not have the means. Pecková noted that schools often do not have insurance for high amounts because such policies are expensive. She also wrote that similar cases fall under objective liability according to the Labor Code, and fulfillment is almost always certain. Therefore, she urged the government to consider supporting school insurance or establishing a guarantee fund at the Ministry of Education. She connected the proposal with the government's decision to support, starting next year, crop and livestock insurance for large agricultural enterprises. According to her, 200 million crowns a year was to be allocated for the new program of the Ministry of Agriculture. Pecková doubted whether farmers would actually secure better insurance thanks to the support, or whether their costs for existing policies would simply decrease. She also mentioned the possibility that they would continue to seek compensation for damages caused by frost or drought. #školství #pojištění #odpovědnost (translated)
