Supreme Court allows disability pension for worker who lost ability to do former job despite retaining capacity for lower work.
Poland (PL)
Legislator summary
AI generatedThe Supreme Court quashed the lower court's dismissal of a disability pension claim by a former miner. The court found that while the worker retained the ability to perform lower-skilled tasks, he had lost the capacity to perform his previous mining job, which constitutes the threshold for disability classification. Consequently, the case was remanded for a new decision on the pension award based on this specific legal standard.
