Abstract
Recently, the Supreme Court pointed out that it would be difficult to maintain the existing opinion any more because the overall conditions that were the basis of the past empirical rule were remarkably changed when estimating the lost earnings of a deceased minor. Thus, the court sentenced en banc decision to extend the maximum working age of manual laborers under the empirical rule to 65 years old. The significance of this ruling is to put an end to social confusion caused by courts' different sentences on the maximum working age under the empirical rule depending on lower court decision, and also to acknowledge the maximum working age of physical laborers by applying the new empirical rule in accordance with entering the aged society. It is still unfortunate to conclude the maximum working age as a specific age and also to estimate the lost earnings of a victim by applying the daily wages of urban laborers. Like this, this study aimed to provide the basic data for guaranteeing a proper compensation for damage to victims by analyzing the issues of rulings related to the maximum working age of manual laborers under the empirical rule, and then complementing imperfections in Korean society that has entered the aged society.
