What is an occupational accident?

Added: 25 October 2026

An occupational accident is an event linked to work under applicable social security rules that causes physical or mental harm.

Key concepts and application

Location alone may not decide classification; assess the connection to work and insurance status. Medical notes, incident reports and witness details clarify events. Urgent care and safety come first.

Rights, procedure and limits

Reporting, insurance benefits and compensation are distinct processes. Fault, causation and loss may need separate assessment; verify obligations and deadlines in current official guidance.
