Full text
16. A victim who, at the time of the accident, holds more than one regular employment including at least one full-time employment is entitled to an income replacement indemnity if, by reason of the accident, he is unable to hold one of these employments.
The indemnity is computed, in accordance with the rules set out in section 15, on the basis of the gross income the victim derives from the employment he is unable to hold, or on the basis of the aggregate of the gross incomes he derives from the several employments he becomes unable to hold, where that is the case.
1977, c. 68, s. 16; 1982, c. 59, s. 4; 1989, c. 15, s. 1.
16. The right to compensation under this title is prescribed by three years from the accident or the manifestation of the injury and, with regard to death benefits, from the time of death.
However, the Régie may, at any time, extend the delay provided for in the first paragraph where, due to extraordinary circumstances, the victim was unable to act within such delay.
Any application for benefit under this Act filed in accordance with section 53 interrupts the prescription provided for in the Civil Code until the date that the Régie or, as the case may be, the Commission des affaires sociales renders its decision on the application.
