معايير المرض المهني لاعتباره إصابة عمل-وفق أحكام القانون الأردني و المقارن

Abstract EN

Occupational diseases resulting from the practice of profession or for reasons related there for to that profession are work-related injuries.

The same rules and provisions that are addressed in insurance apply on these injuries.

Work injury in the Jordanian Law may be a work accident, an occupational disease or it may result from a road or a sport accident.

An occupational disease may lead to the injury of the insured with permanent disability, either totally in which the injured loses all or most of his ability to work, or partially so that the injured retains some of his abilities without performing his job as usual.

All phases of occupational disease will entail insurance entitlements for the insured that differ depending on the disability phases, whether temporary or permanent, or on the percentage of permanent disability of the disease (in whole or in part) or in the case of death.

Working conditions are taken into account when estimating the disability percentage ranging from (1 %-100 %).

The Jordanian and comparative legislator equalize in the insured entitlements between all types of injuries, both at the phase of temporary disability and the subsequent medical care and compensation for the wage suspended due to injury and work stoppage, or entitlements for work injury permanent disability and death, whether partial or whole pension, lump sum compensation or work injury death wage.
