The Supreme Court dismissed the applicant's cassation appeal against the appellate court's rejection of his disability pension claim. The applicant argued that work conditions worsened his pre-existing shoulder injury, but the lower court found no deterioration in his health during employment. The Supreme Court upheld the decision, ruling that the applicant failed to prove how specific work conditions exacerbated his condition beyond the initial injury.
