Appeal following the denial of permanent disability, in processes of temporary incapacity of less than 545 days (article 174.1 TRLGSS).
If an application for permanent disability has been filed prior to the conclusion of the 545 calendar days of the temporary disability and the right to permanent disability benefit is then denied, the National Social Security Institute (INSS) will be the only body authorised to grant a new period of sick leave for the same or a similar pathology within the 180 calendar days following the negative ruling.
To this end, the worker shall send the corresponding request for sick leave due to relapse to the aforementioned Institute.
