The Tribunal da Relação do Porto partially revoked a decision denying in-kind benefits for home adaptation works following a work accident. The appellant argued these modifications were essential for returning to work, while the court ruled they fall outside the scope of the 1971 Law. Consequently, the court determined that such adaptations are not covered by the statutory in-kind prestations defined in the relevant legislation.
