The Federal Supreme Court notes that, in the circumstances to be assessed here under Art. 28 para. 4 of the Ordinance on Accident Insurance, age does not constitute a factor for a deduction from the statistical wages in accident insurance. The same applies to years of service. The restriction on carrying loads to 15 kilograms does not justify, even together with the other limitations, a total deduction higher than that recognised by the respondent and the lower instances. This applies to unskilled activities that include light physical work. The appeal is dismissed.
