If you fall to or from work on a snowy day, it may not be recognized as a work-related injury according to the relevant laws.

First, we need to clarify the definition of work-related injuries. According to the Regulations on Work-related Injury Insurance, work-related injuries refer to work-related injuries suffered by employees during working hours and in the workplace. Therefore, in order to be recognized as a work-related injury, three conditions must be met: working hours, workplace, and work-related reasons.

Fall injuries occur on the way to and from work, not inside the workplace. Therefore, from the perspective of time, this fall does not meet the definition of a work-related injury. In addition, even in the workplace, if the fall is caused by personal reasons or negligence, it may not be recognized as a work-related injury. For example, if you fall due to your negligence or improper clothing, you will not be eligible for work-related reasons, so you cannot be considered a work-related injury. However, if you fall while in the workplace due to work-related reasons, you may be considered a work-related injury. For example, if you fall while clearing snow or performing other work-related activities, you may be considered a work-related injury. In short, to determine whether your fall is a work-related injury, you need to judge it on a case-by-case basis. If you are not sure about the relevant legal provisions, it is recommended to consult a professional lawyer or relevant authorities to understand. At the same time, it is also recommended that you pay attention to safety during your commute to work and take anti-skid measures to avoid similar accidents again.
