Pension damage due to injury

If you suffer an injury that prevents you from working or reduces your ability to work, it affects your earning power. You lose some of your income and cannot start earning more either, due to lack of promotion or growth of your business.

Another consequence is pension damage. If you have less income, you will also build up less pension, or even none at all. Is pension damage caused by injury, for which someone else is liable? In case of liability, pension damage must be compensated in full.
However, determining the total pension damage is complex and estimates often yield too low an amount. That is why Labour Injury Lawyers helps you if you are dealing with pension damage.

How does pension damage occur?

Claims arise because you accrue less pension than you expect or need for your livelihood - after retirement. At disability your pension accrual sometimes continues (contribution-free). This is reassuring.

Unfortunately, this is done on the basis of your income at the time you become incapacitated. Growth is no longer possible, whereas it normally is for many employees, throughout their career. In fact, pension damage is all the pension accrual you lose, directly and indirectly, due to injury and all its consequences.

Pension damage liability

At pension damage caused by disability, there may be liability. This is the case when, for example, you have a accident has had where another party was responsible. This could be a workplace accident where your employer did not provide sufficiently safe working conditions. Also a road accident in which the other party committed a traffic violation may lead to liability.

With any kind of damage caused by the actions of another person, it is important that liability is established legally first. After that, there can be talk of claiming compensation. Determining the extent of pension damage requires thorough investigation of the applicable pension scheme and personal circumstances. Sometimes we engage a pension expert or a calculation agency for this purpose. ArbeidsletselAdvocaten is happy to check with you whether there may be liability for your pension damage and help you claim those damages.

Claiming damages at Pension Damage

In personal injury practice, it is quite common to approach pension damages by way of estimation. This almost always leads to incomplete compensation.

However, we at Employment Injury Lawyers believe that as a victim, you deserve a careful approach to your pension injury. This approach requires thorough investigation of the pension schemes that apply to you. All kinds of rapidly changing legislation in this area, such as the increase in the retirement age, must also be taken into account. Sometimes we consult a pension expert for this purpose. In any case, we then have an accounting firm calculate your pension loss to the decimal point.
