Spain - EHS legally recognised
This is a special post which includes an auto-translation of the recent legal decision in the High Court of Madrid, which found in favour of an EHS sufferer, an ex-employee at Ericsson.
Thanks to Shirley Temple for providing this document.
There's a link below the auto-translation to coverage of the case on the Towards Better Health blog.
The name of this person has been redacted from the legal ruling, although it is in the public domain.
The original legal judgement, written in Spanish, was converted so that the actual text could be selected (it was a .pdf file of a scanned document), and then auto-translated. The resulting text is not easy to read - partly because of the legalese in the original, and partly because of the inherent limitations of auto-translations.
I'll replace this when a proper English translation is available, and in the meantime, the translated article on Towards Better Health provides a more readable summary of this judgement.
There are some links to further media coverage below the auto-translated ruling.

THE LAW
FIRST Against the judgment of the Labour Court No. 11 of the city in car no. 1O11 / 2014 has brought Counsel then appealed the claimant under the provisions of Article 193 b) and c) of the two groups claiming LRJS grounds of appeal:
In the first, asks:
a) The second revision of the proven fact giving the following relationship:
"The actor worked for the company ERICSON, flaunting the professional category Telecommunications Engineer, and its regulatory base of 2.812.33 € monthly (not disputed fact).
The tasks in their profession are: analyze, develop, develop and implement test cases software and hardware: coordinate, lead and manage test procedure: check the configuration and integration of a node, a network or system: scope of these activities could include: introduction of software, software expansion level, expansion of software (functionality and capacity) and migration of the same: the ultimate goal is to deliver to the client node, network or system.
These activities are carried out both offices Ericsson (office area, area models) and customer premises (equipment rooms and offices) and in constant daily contact with computers in an environment where there are electromagnetic fields, mobile connections and wireless radio. "
b) The addition of a new seventh ordinal proven fact with the following wording:
"It is considered by the Prevention Service of the company that the applicant is particularly sensitive person and that once the possibilities of adaptation to other activities and mode of work according to the medical examination and medical reports analyzed. IS NOT SUITABLE for perform their profession.
For that reason and given the impossibility of reassignment of the employee to another job in which electromagnetic fields affecting their health are not present, the company proceeds to end the employment relationship that united them because of the ineptitude develop their work, given the existence of a clear situation of disability. "
c) The revision of the fourth proven fact giving the following wording:"Upon issuance of the said medical summary report by the Disability Assessment Team (EVI) opinion dated 06/06/2014 proposal in which determined the following clinical residual was issued:" anxiety-depressive disorder predominating irritability and difficulty impulse control, electrosensitivity syndrome (EHS), Multiple Chemical Sensitivity syndrome (MCS), Irritable bowel syndrome, dry mucous" non-qualifying worked as permanently disabled by not presenting anatomical or reductions functional proposed that diminish or nullify its labor capacity (Folio 39).
According to expert report Hospital of Guadalajara. "In the presence of this exposure to electromagnetic fields, such as that found in the workplace, appear in the patient's symptoms of hypersensitivity especially relating to (headache, tinnitus, insomnia and other sleep disorders, fatigue and fatigability, changes nervous system mood, nervousness, irritability or aggressiveness, impaired concentration and short-term memory, etc.), and to improve away from their exposure. "
In the second group of reasons for appeal alleges infringement of Article 137.5 of the General Social Security Law; alternatively point 4 of the same article; and the jurisprudential doctrine cites in its application.
SECOND.- interested by the applicant to the fact proved second of the judgment of the Court is inconsequential to the decision of the case because the content obligational as defined in the professional category that is what must be evaluated and not a specific job to determine whether or not the worker is in situation total permanent disability for usual occupation. Which prevents the first estimated plea because it already has proven in the professional category second fact.
THIRD:- If you must be estimated the addition of the new fact that seventh ordinal interested in its application because it refers to factual information susceptible to failure transcend the dispute whose purpose is to determine the capacity or incapacity of the actor for the performance of work.
FOURTH.- modification interesting for the proven fact four of the judgment of Court consists of the addition of a second paragraph to its literal content that alludes the report of the Hospital of Guadalajara. This expert report in the case file and refers to circumstances or susceptible pathologies arise when the worker is exposed to electromagnetic fields. What it is implicitly included in saying that suffering Electrosensitivity SYNDROME (SQM), making it unnecessary to add to mode directly derived greater detail the consequences of such pathology they are unwritten and included to state that suffers. What makes unnecessary by not estimable this ground of appeal.
FIFTH.- Once resolved define the course of application of the rules regulating substantive legal incapacity. ie Articles 136 and 137 of the LGSS, the resulting form as described above. in view thereof it is reasonably accredited total permanent disability of the claimant for normal profession Telecommunications engineer because of chemical sensitivity syndrome or suffering Electromagnetic hypersensitivity to the Spanish Ministry of Health has called on its version of the international classification of ICD-9-CM disease within the group no specific allergies (code 995.3). Allergy that causes the sufferer in loss induced tolerance, for most recurrent outbreaks, the RF pollution, cordless phones, mobile phone antennas, WIFI, forcing suffers a quine minimize its exposition in the home and work environments and avoid places with electromagnetic pollution. These circumstances leading to the reasonable decision to declare the applicant in situation of total permanent disability for usual occupation Engineer Telecommunications derived from common disease entitled to receive the benefit economiea in corresponding application of the provisions of Article 137.4 of the General Social Security Law.
SIXTH.-. If, as it has been argued above. the actor is unable to work in environments with electromagnetic pollution, this situation does not occur in all types of environments and places, so if you can work in so-called "white zones" they do not have that kind of contamination; and as for the chemical sensitivity syndrome who also suffers from multiple, as argued in the legal basis Fourth judgment of the Court "not possible to draw definite consequences", and this lack of permanent limitations prevents estimate its claim to be declared for absolute permanent disability pursuant to the provisions of Article 136.1 of the LGSS.
