兼职意外受伤，副业收入损失能计入误工费吗？

北京二中院审理的一起机动车交通事故责任纠纷案引发了对“兼职误工费”的法律讨论 1。在2024年10月发生的小郑诉杨某交通事故案中，小郑主张其自2022年起从事外卖骑手工作的兼职收入受损应计入误工费 1。法院综合考量证据后，以小郑每月2000元的标准支持了其5个月的兼职误工损失 1。

西南大学法学院教授杨复卫指出，兼职收入获赔需满足劳动对价性、持续稳定性、因果关系及合法性四个条件 1。目前司法实践中对于兼职误工费的认定标准（如持续性、稳定性）及计算方式存在不统一现象 1。例如，辽宁锦州中院在宋某案中按辽宁省2025年度道路交通事故损害赔偿居民服务业标准计算误工损失；山西运城中院则参照上一年度交通运输业平均工资酌情判定 1。最高人民法院《关于审理人身损害赔偿案件适用法律若干问题的解释》第二十条虽规定了误工费计算基准，但未明确规范副业收入部分 1。律师谢燕平建议将平台后台数据纳入法定证据范畴，明确平台企业的数据协助义务，以减轻劳动者负担 1。

A recent ruling by the Beijing No. 2 Intermediate People’s Court has reignited legal discussions over whether income from part-time jobs should be included in claims for lost wages following accidental injuries 1. In a traffic accident liability dispute that occurred in October 2024, the plaintiff, identified as Xiao Zheng, argued that he had been working as a food delivery rider since 2022 and sought compensation for the resulting loss of side-job income 1. The court evaluated the evidence and ultimately supported his claim, awarding him compensation for five months of lost work based on a monthly standard of 2,000 yuan 1.

This case highlights the challenges courts face in determining the eligibility and calculation methods for part-time wage losses as new employment forms become more common 1. Legal experts note that inconsistent standards exist regarding requirements such as continuity and stability of income, with judicial practices varying across regions 1. For instance, in a separate case involving Song Mou, the Liaoning Jinzhou Intermediate People’s Court calculated lost wages according to the 2025 residential service industry standards for road traffic accident damages in Liaoning Province 1. Conversely, the Shanxi Yuncheng Intermediate People’s Court in another case referenced the average salary of the transportation industry from the previous year to make its discretionary judgment 1.

Yang Fuwei, a professor at the Law School of Southwest University, outlined four conditions necessary for side-job income to be recognized for compensation: it must represent labor consideration, demonstrate continuity and stability, have a causal link to the injury, and comply with legal standards 1. While Article 20 of the Supreme People’s Court’s Interpretation on Several Issues Concerning the Application of Law in the Trial of Cases on Personal Injury Compensation provides a baseline for calculating lost wages, it does not explicitly regulate how secondary or part-time income should be handled 1. To address evidentiary burdens on workers, lawyer Xie Yanping suggested that backend data from platforms should be included within the scope of statutory evidence, recommending clear obligations for platform enterprises to assist in providing proof 1.
