Medical Certificate Evidentiary Weight in Employment Incapacity Disputes

In an appellate review concerning the evidentiary value of medical certificates in employment disputes, the court affirmed that a medical certificate generally serves as sufficient proof of incapacity for work unless grounded doubts exist, which were not established by the employer despite their general objection to the validity of the reports. The court reasoned that the presented medical reports met the standard requirements, and since the employer failed to demand an examination by a trusted physician, as permissible when doubting an employee's certificate, the attested 100% incapacity for work must be accepted as fact.
