Legal guarantees for injury to a foreign worker (A comparative study)

The issue of legal guarantees for injury to a foreign worker is one of the important issues at the practical and legal level at the same time, even though the phenomenon of foreign labor was a phenomenon that existed previously, but it did not address the injury of the foreign worker either at the present time, especially the development taking place in the scientific and practical field, which needs skills and foreign experiences.
And despite the presence of some legal texts regulating some of its issues on the one hand, and international agreements that dealt with some issues, including the equality of the foreign worker with the national worker in some topics and other issues on the other hand, the desired goal was not achieved in regulating the issue of injury to the foreign worker and providing guarantees and legal protection for these This category, as a special law must be enacted in the issue of foreign worker injury, especially the large spread of the work of this category inside Iraq, which has become one of the legal phenomena that need to establish a legal basis for it, which deals with the legal guarantees granted by the foreign worker.
Accordingly, this study revolves around the largest episode, which is the study of legal guarantees, not the injury of the foreign worker, and we found it in the folds of the search for legal guarantees for the injury of the foreign worker in special laws, without being limited to civil laws, whether at the level of the Iraqi civil law or the laws under study, as the comparative legislation was not developed A clear concept about the legal guarantees that a foreign worker is entitled to when he suffers a work injury, and we also did not find specific controls or mechanisms to determine guarantees for the foreign worker, but the laws were limited to compensating the national worker and providing him with guarantees and legal protection without addressing the injury of the foreign worker, the guarantees he deserves with the exception of international agreements Which was somewhat shy because it set the general framework and did not delve into its merits and what the foreign worker deserves when he suffers a work injury until there are cases of law on compensation for medical care that the foreign worker deserves despite being deprived of other guarantees
