cooperlola Posted June 8, 2012 Share Posted June 8, 2012 Can anybody tell me how the percentage ratings of disabilities are translated across Europe? Specifically, an organisation here offers discounted tickets for those with over 80% disability. How does this work for those who are registered disabled in the UK? How do they prove they're 80%? Is it a common system or what? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NormanH Posted June 8, 2012 Share Posted June 8, 2012 I am not sure that France takes much notice of anywhere else:http://legifrance.gouv.fr/affichCode.do?idSectionTA=LEGISCTA000006126942&cidTexte=LEGITEXT000006073189&dateTexte=20110402http://droit-finances.commentcamarche.net/legifrance/66-code-de-la-securite-sociale/245825/bareme-indicatif-d-invalidite-accidentsbut both those are for accidents de travail.Some where I have the form for calculating the % that the Doctor fills in..

cooperlola Posted June 8, 2012 Author Share Posted June 8, 2012 I think we have come to pretty much the same conclusion, Norman. I'll explain. The ACO offers discounted ticket entry for those with 80% disability. Given that a third of the audience (and we're talking 200k people here), and two thirds of those who camp, are British or other Europeans, there seems to be no facility for them to benefit which ain't good. I would like to take this up with them and ask on behalf of some friends of mine who prepare a guide each year (I write the "disabled" bit) but thought I'd get some official info' - should it exist - first.

To get over 80% you would need to be quite severely diabled.And No, a bad back wont do it. [6]EDIT: crossed posting Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
