Summary/Abstract: The present study analyses the rules regulated by law regarding the procedure for determining by the court of the amount of compensation owed by the employer for damages, suffered by a worker or an employee, or by their relatives, in the event of damage to their health or life, in cases of an occupational accident or an occupational disease. More specifically, the legal issues have been examined, arising in the establishing of the constituent elements of the basis from which the court is obliged to deduct the compensations and/or social security pensions received by the victim, when determining the final amount of the specified compensation. Thus, a definitive answer to the question has been formulated, related to the contradictory practice of the Supreme Court of Cassation on the inclusion of non-property damages in the minuend involved in the calculation of the sought difference.
