337. If a worker suffering from an occupational disease has carried on work that would induce his disease for more than one employer, of which employers at least one is personally liable for the payment of benefits, the Commission shall determine by whom the benefits are to be paid and shall determine each employer’s share in proportion to the duration of the work for each employer and the danger involved in the work carried on for each of them in terms of contracting the occupational disease.

If the worker is no longer in the employ of the employer who is personally liable for the payment of benefits for whom he carried on work of a kind that would induce his disease, the employer shall pay each year to the Commission or to the employer who is required to pay the benefits, as the case may be, the share the Commission allocated to him, within 30 days of sending a written notice given to him by the Commission to that effect.
