Key legal question
Whether Art. 36(3) UVV lawfully limits total integrity compensation to 100% when injuries stem from several accidents
Extracted holding
The regulation is lawful; the total integrity compensation may be capped at 100% even for injuries from multiple accidents, with prior awards proportionally credited.
Extracted reasoning
The Federal Council acted within the wide delegation in Art. 25(2) UVG. Because integrity damage is assessed abstractly and equally on medical grounds, the same severe combined impairment must be treated the same whether it results from one or several accidents. The cap avoids unequal treatment and is neither arbitrary nor contrary to equal treatment.
