A.

Accordingly, the disease of this case is in proximate causal relation with the Plaintiff’s work exposed to noise, and also conforms to the criteria for recognition of disability benefits, and thus, the instant disposition against which disability benefits were not paid by deeming otherwise is unlawful.2) Even if the Plaintiff’s difficult situation caused by the disease of this case was less than 40dB, and thus, it does not fall under the minimum disability grade criteria prescribed in the Enforcement Decree of the Industrial Accident Compensation Insurance Act (hereinafter “Act”) and the Enforcement Rule of the Act.

As long as it constitutes an occupational accident, disability benefits should be paid in accordance with the lowest disability grade prescribed in the above criteria for disability grade (class 1 of class 14), or disability benefits should be paid in proportion to the degree of disability compared with the lowest disability grade at least, and therefore, in this regard, the disability benefits should be paid.
