Abstract
The article entitled "Benefits for an employee due to an occupational disease" presents a catalog of benefits due to an employee who has an occupational disease. This catalog has been divided into one-off, short-term and long-term benefits. One-time benefits include one-off compensation for an employee due to permanent or long-term damage to health or to the family of a worker due to death due to occupational disease and covering medical costs in the field of dentistry and immunization and supply of orthopedic items. Short-term benefits include sickness benefit from accident insurance, rehabilitation benefit and compensatory allowance. On the other hand, long-term benefits are a disability pension, a training pension, a survivor's pension and a care allowance. Guarantees about benefits are wide, but it must be borne in mind that receiving each of the indicated benefits requires a medical certificate confirming the occupational disease. The benefits are awarded only in half of cases, and their amount is usually not sufficient to cover the costs of treatment and rehabilitation.<br/><br/>
