equalized disability benefit Explanation: Should probably say "Gleichgestellte Behinderung." I agree with Johanna, the context here is that a disability, under certain conditions, can be legally elevated and put on the same legal footing (= gleichstellen) as severe disability, giving the recipient special protections in the workplace. Unfortunately, in English, you don't talk about equalized disability, only about equalized (disability) benefits. Compare with this: Mr. Fusco also faulted Mr. Lynch for failing to preserve or regain equalized disability benefits for officers disabled in the line of duty hired starting in 2010. In 2009, then-Gov. David Paterson vetoed a bill that would have kept newly-hired officers under Tier 2, which offers benefits, including the disability pension, that are more generous than they received. http://thechiefleader.com/news/news_of_the_week/pba-brooklyn... |
