Questione giuridica chiave
Whether the deceased worker’s earnings had to be annualized for determining the insured income for the surviving child’s pension.
Decisione estratta
Yes. Because the concrete circumstances showed a probable long-term employment in Switzerland, the wages earned during the short stay had to be extrapolated to a full year under Art. 22(4) UVV.
Motivazione estratta
The court relied on the unbefristeter employment contract, the opening of a Swiss salary account, occupational pension coverage, the employer’s intention to seek a yearly permit, and the worker’s personal and economic circumstances. These concrete pre-accident arrangements made a longer-term employment more probable than a mere four-month engagement.
