Epileptischer Anfall: Arbeitsunfall? Nach dem Ausstempeln für die Firma unterwegs
Ein Mitarbeiter im Kundendienst hat im Auto einen epileptischen Anfall und kommt von der Fahrbahn ab. Später gibt er an, für die Firma unterwegs gewesen zu sein - aber er war schon ausgestempelt.
A worker involved in an epileptic seizure after removing their name from their company's records while en route to work has been deemed to have had an accident unrelated to their employment. The case, heard by the Bayerisches Landessozialgericht in Munich, raises questions about the definition of an "employment-related" accident.
The worker, a claims department employee, had previously obtained a data card for claims work from another company and intended to return to his employer after the incident. However, the Berufsgenossenschaft disputed the claim, citing doubts about the employee's intent to travel to the other company on company business and the unusually long journey.
The judge found insufficient evidence to support the claim that the journey was for work purposes at the time of the accident.
