Based on the particularity of the legal attributes of overage employment relations, there have long been theoretical differences and judicial practice disputes in the field of labor law regarding the work-related injury relief mechanism. The work-related injury insurance system for overage workers currently being piloted in some regions of my country provides an innovative institutional exploration to solve this dilemma. This paper takes Sichuan Provinces "Measures for the Participation of Work-related Injury Insurance by Employees and Interns Over the Legal Retirement Age in the Province" as an empirical research object, and aims to provide a feasible solution for improving the occupational safety protection system for overage employees by deconstructing its institutional design and implementation path. The study focuses on legal analysis from the dimensions of the definition of insured entities, the design of payment mechanisms, and the standards for the payment of benefits, and attempts to construct a universal institutional framework to respond to the rights and interests protection needs of special groups under new labor relations.
