Poland (PL)
Legislator summary
AI generatedThe Supreme Court dismissed the cassation appeal against a lower court's decision granting a partial occupational disability pension. The applicant, a former teacher, was found partially unable to work due to a permanent voice disorder preventing vocal exertion, though he could remain in an administrative role. The court rejected the argument that the disability occurred after retirement, noting the medical opinion established a lasting condition with no prospect of recovery through retraining.
Legislator headnote
