Partial suggestions for improving the legal framework for the assessment of health ability for work
Main Article Content
Abstract
This paper deals with medical examination of employeeʼs ability to work. Although from a legislative-technical point of view, this regulation is considered to be successful, in practice it causes major problems in the area of assessment care, which is evidenced in particular by case law. Referencing to practice, we can state that the idea of the occupational health services provider as professional assistant of the employer in providing for the protection of employees' occupational health has not taken hold at all. Employers justifiably ask why they should pay for a medical report giving them no legal certainty.
