Supreme Court overturned social security court ruling on work injury compensation percentage and costs.

The Supreme Court of Poland overturned the appellate court's decision limiting the work injury disability assessment to 80% and reducing the lump-sum compensation. The insured argued for a higher percentage based on a prior 90% finding, while the social security institution contended for the lower rate. The court ruled that the statutory definition of a decision 'on disability' includes any ruling that adjudicates the issue, regardless of whether it confirms the injury, thereby invalidating the application of outdated compensation rates.
