Resumo Omnilex

The claimant sought occupational pension benefits under the LPP. The court held that entitlement depends on proving an incapacity to work while the insured person was still employed. Because that proof was not provided, the claim for benefits failed.

Sumário Omnilex

Art. 23 LPP; entitlement to occupational pension benefits and onset of incapacity to work: the insured event is covered only if the relevant incapacity for work begins during the period of insured employment. The claimant bears the burden of proving this temporal link. If it cannot be established that the incapacity arose while the employment relationship still subsisted, no right to LPP benefits exists.
