immobility allowance/immobility pension Explanation: Both, allowance and pension, are perfectly acceptable. Also possible: pension in respect of immobility Some other useful terms recognised by the Slovak social security legislation: bezvládnosť - immobility čiastočná bezvládnosť - partial immobility úplná bezvládnosť - total immobility (It is not precise to translate bezvládnosť as incapacity!!! or disability in this context. If you are disabled, it does not necessarily mean you are bezvládny - immobile.) invalidita - invalidity/disability čiastočná invalidita - partial invalidity/disability dočasná práceneschopnosť - temporary incapacity for work/sick leave trvalá práceneschopnosť - permanent incapacity for work -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 3 hrs (2008-03-16 21:10:05 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- More feedback: Incapacity is - práceneschopnosť, pracovná neschopnosť - due to sickness, accident at work, occupational disease... Your incapacity for work can last for some shorter or longer time or can even be followed by invalidity but on the other you can go back to work after some period of incapacity. Disability is - zdravotné postihnutie - which does not neccessarily mean that you are immobile -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 15 hrs (2008-03-17 08:44:05 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- Yes, you are right, you have divided up the phrase wrongly. It is an increase of (some kind of) pension because of bezvládnosť of the pension holder (we do not know what kind of pension because you did not specify it). But in the first case (in the case of dôchodcu), it is likely to be an old-age pension because in Slovakia you get an invalidity/disability pension only if you are not yet entitled to an an old-age pension or an early old-age pension (an early retirement pension). Almost all the terms that I have used here in this contribution are used in the "English" versions of various EU forms or legislation on social security for migrant workers. -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 15 hrs (2008-03-17 08:53:03 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- So to sum up, the pension is increased because of the immobility or in respect of immobility as I advised earlier or in other words you get an immobility allowance on top of the pension. See the link bellow and check out all the entries with bezvládnosť. You will actually find "zvýšenie dôchodku pre bezvládnosť" in there. And I take it this glossary was prepared by a native speaker of English. http://www.socpoist.sk/index/index.php?ids=6926 -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 15 hrs (2008-03-17 09:00:57 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- Just as a mater of interest "immobility allowance" is not a Slovakism as Rad quickly pointed out. It is commonly used in the UK as well. Just search on the UK Yahoo for example, it gives many hits, for example see - http://www.thedjshop.net/finance_form.asp To be eligible for finance you will need to be: Over 18 In regular employment or receive a regular pension / immobility allowance A UK resident for the past 3 years -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 15 hrs (2008-03-17 09:16:35 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- And more feedback: see the British web page http://hansard.millbanksystems.com/commons/1977/jul/05/blind... This is what they write: There are also persons who, although blind, can get about with the aid of a stick, although they cannot see an inch in front of them. Such persons, because they are regarded as mobile, are not entitled, it has been ruled, to the immobility allowance. This confirms what I have been saying from the beginning. Disability is a broader term as such. |
