Abstract

BARRIOPEDRO PRADOS, Mª Isabel. Determination of Contingency. Analysis of 15 Cases With Judicial Sentence Year 2015. Med. segur. trab. [online]. 2017, vol.63, n.248, pp.208-224. ISSN 1989-7790.

Regarding the Contingency Determination trials in both Social Courts and Superior Courts of Justice, based on the premise that each case has to be analyzed in particular for its multiple circumstances, there are several criteria to qualify:

Common disease:

As preexisting disease not aggravated by work accident.

Work accident:

As aggravation of previous pathology.

Incident in place and time of work.

There seems to be no conclusive criteria which distinguish between common disease and work accidents.

The purpose of the present study is to analyze 9 parameters of 15 sentences of the year 2015 in Madrid, in order to arrive at medico-juridical / medico-legal reasoning reasonings that can improve our daily work in Social Courts.

Keywords : Contingency Determination; Work accident-Common disease.
