Rights of victims who attended the festivals as part of their job

Anyone who worked in the festivals and was wounded - can submit a request to be recognized as victim of a work-injury in parallel with the recognition request as hostile actions casualties.

However, one cannot receive both benefits simultaneously, and when eligible - you can choose the most rewarding allowance and benefits between the two of them - in other words, the higher allowance between them.
