Abstract
This article analyses the basis of benefit surcharges from a historical-legal perspective, which is a longstanding concept in our legal system and one of the most controversial institutions of our labour-legal system. The study goes over the evolution of benefit surcharges from the initial insuring possibility to its prohibition with the 1992 Law on Accidents at Work. The aim of this essay is to understand the reasons behind the legislator’s change of criteria, an event with an undeniable significance, both from a practical point of view and from the legal dogma perspective, as far as it substantially affects the nature of the analyzed institution.
