Disability Benefits Appeal: Residual Earning Capacity Assessment

An insured individual appealed a decision by the social insurance office denying disability insurance benefits, where the dispute centered on the assessment of residual earning capacity following medical evaluations. The court reasoned that the assessment of residual earning capacity must be based on a comprehensive evaluation of the insured's overall condition, taking into account not only objective medical findings but also the insured's personal situation, qualifications, and the typical demands of the relevant labor market, ultimately finding that the previous assessment insufficiently considered all relevant factors impacting the claimant's ability to work.
