Key legal question
Whether the claimant was entitled to an invalidity pension based on reduced work capacity and performance in adapted work.
Extracted holding
The claimant had full work capacity in the adapted accounting assistant activity, without a notable reduction in performance, so the pension threshold was not met.
Extracted reasoning
The Federal Court held that the medical assessment of working capacity includes the assessment of expected performance. The SMR expert’s report could therefore support a finding of full capacity and full performance. Stage reports and the treating physician’s contrary view did not make the cantonal court’s evaluation arbitrary.
