Supreme Court dismisses claim against employer for asbestos exposure compensation due to lack of statutory duty.
Sintesi Legislator
Generato dall'IAThe Supreme Court dismissed the employee's claim for compensation against the employer regarding asbestos exposure between 1945 and 1973. Although the employee suffered a confirmed asbestos-related illness, the court found no statutory obligation for the employer to compensate in this specific historical context. The decision rests on the absence of a legal duty to provide compensation for such occupational hazards during that period.
