Abstract

Spanish legislation has included the concept of industrial accidents and industrial damage since 1900, although since then in our country some legislative changes have been made, reaching the current Occupational Risk Prevention Law (ORPL) of 1995 and the legislation emanating from it. This is a controversial concept, if we talk about nontraumatic labor injury that carries consequences in the workplace, civil, criminal and contentious administrative disputes, and economic gains. It differs from others in qualifying both risks and benefits; the concept also exists in the other European Union countries and in different Spanish-American countries. Therefore the objective of this paper is to discuss the concept of traumatic industrial accident and nontraumatic labor injury in Spain from the point of view of our law and to establish future benchmarks with professionals of other countries around us for enabling collaboration and joint improvement of the safety and health of workers.
