Sintesi Omnilex

The court upheld the accident insurer's determination that the consequences of a motorcycle fall, including knee arthrosis treated with an endoprosthesis, justify a 50% disability pension and 30% compensation for impairment of bodily integrity. The challenged assessment was confirmed in full.

Massima Omnilex

Art. 6 al. 1 LAA; accident causation and assessment of permanent consequences of a knee injury. Where an accident leads to lasting functional limitations and a medically established impairment, the accident insurer's assessment of disability and integrity damage is upheld if supported by the evidence. Confirmation of a disability pension requires a loss of earning capacity attributable to the accident; compensation for impairment of bodily integrity depends on the degree of enduring bodily damage, assessed independently of wage loss.
