Legal analysis: employees who attend company parties and die of drunkenness are not work-related injuries. Employees who get sick during non-working hours, non-working hours or for work reasons do not belong to the category of work-related injuries and cannot be identified as work-related injuries. The company does not need to pay death compensation, but may be liable for tort compensation for failing to fulfill its security obligations. Because the employees who drink alcohol are people with full capacity, they should bear the main responsibility, and the company generally bears the secondary responsibility.

Legal basis: Article 16 of the Regulations on Work-related Injury Insurance: An employee meets the provisions of Articles 14 and 15 of these regulations, but in any of the following circumstances, it is not recognized as a work-related injury or regarded as a work-related injury: (1) Intentionally committing a crime; (2) Being drunk or taking drugs; (3) Self-mutilation or suicide.
