Specific Features of Civil Liability for Causing Harm to the Health of Minors

Annotation

The article is devoted to the peculiarities of civil liability for causing harm to the health of minors. Based on the analysis of law enforcement practice, it is concluded that in the case of injury to the health of minors, this category of victims is guaranteed not just compensation for lost earnings, but the possibility of its repeated increase through their own development, which persists throughout their lives. It is concluded that in relation to minors who were not working at the time of the injury, there is not a loss, but the inability for health reasons to acquire professional working capacity in full. In order to implement the principle of increased protection of the rights of victims who have suffered harm to health at a minor age, it is proposed to supplement the legally established procedure for indexing paid compensation for harm with the possibility of increasing it in proportion to the increase in the amount of remuneration.
