French term or phrase: Incapacité Economique de Travail
"L’Incapacité Economique de Travail est la diminution de la Capacité de Travail, subie par l’Affilié, compte tenu de la profession exercée et des possibilités de réadaptation dans une activité professionnelle qui soit compatible avec ses connaissances et ses aptitudes, chez l’Employeur même, ou auprès de tout autre entreprise établie au Luxembourg."

This is definitely a Benelux concept. Not sure what the 'official' translation is, if one exists. Any ideas?

Explanation:
L'appréciation de l'incapacité de travail indemnisable
L’incapacité de travail qui consiste dans la perte ou la diminution du potentiel économique de la victime s’apprécie principalement en fonction de sa capacité de concurrence sur le marché général de l’emploi.

the"economic" part seems to be just legalese for somebody being unable to be as productive as he was before being incapacitated
also the context seems to refer to a person. " L'affilie". not a group
