Resumo Omnilex

The cantonal court accepted the judicial expert report and held that the insured person's earning incapacity after the accident amounted to 67%, situated between the CNA's 35% estimate and the AI's 100% estimate. It also found that the CNA's economic survey was rather summary because only one company had been contacted, but the resulting salary ceiling of CHF 3,000 per month nevertheless lay within a realistic range for a comparable hypothetical activity.

Sumário Omnilex

LAA art. 18 al. 2; determination of earning incapacity and hypothetical salary after an accident; the court may rely on judicial expertise when it is convincing and places the assessment between divergent administrative evaluations. An economic investigation is not deprived of probative value merely because it is limited in scope; its results remain usable if, despite methodological shortcomings, the indicated salary lies within a realistic range of possibilities for a comparable activity (consid. unspecified).

Résumé

Sur la base de l'expertise judiciaire, le TA a admis un degré d'incapacité de gain de 67 %, à mi-chemin entre ce que prévoyait la CNA (35 %) et l'AI (100 %). L'enquête économique effectuée par la CNA est qualifiée de sommaire (une seule entreprise contactée), mais le plafond du salaire mensuel, fixé à Fr. 3'000.-, se situe dans une moyenne tout à fait réaliste des possibilités offertes dans un cas de figure similaire.
