    Re: Workplace Injury; What is the procedure?

    Her (our) doctor said, as soon as she heard the injury happened at work " you need to go to you employer and use their Mutua". It wasnt optional Warbey. (had she said it happened at home she prob would have got a pain killer and an appointment for Mojon for an xray). Javi; a question. I work for an agent. IF i got an injury at work (i work in different places), would i claim through my agency's Mutua or the place of work? Seems obvious to me but i would like your input. Again thanks for the advice so far.
    Just when i thought i was out............They pull me back in.

    Yes, you would. If you are working under an employment contract (full time, part time or another type) you are entitled to go to the Mutua in case of workplace accident.

    Notice the fact that according to H&S Spanish regulation the workplace is anywhere in which an employee is working for their employer. Think in a electrician who works for an employer and who is working in a client's premises and suffers an accident. He/she has to be treated by the Mutua.

    Even, if you get injured in a car accident when you go to or come from work, then such circumstance is considered a work-related accident. This kind of accident is called "In itinire". If you use a public mean of transport, your bike, scutter or if simply you go on foot, also it is considered a workplace accident.

    Be safe out there.

    Re: What is the procedure after a workplace injury in Tenerife?

    I read recently, that One in Five From the U.K. think the Law is the same in all Countries.

    E.U. Law applies to all E.U. Territory, but then the LOCAL Law applies, according to the

    National and Provincial Areas.

    You probably know this, Many don't, and thanks to Javi for the advice for Tenerife,

    and I expect, Todos Espana..

    Please let Us know how the O.H. gets on Sean.?
