Responsabilidade civil no contexto de pandemia: uma análise da compensação financeira em favor dos profissionais de saúde

Abstract

The present work aimed to conduct a socio-legal critical analysis of Law No. 14,128/2021, which establishes pecuniary compensation for healthcare professionals who have suffered any permanent disability or, in the case of death, for their dependents. Methodologically, an inductive approach was adopted, combined with bibliographic and jurisprudential review. It was concluded that the provision of specific compensation for healthcare professionals is a recognition of the efforts and dedication of those who were constantly exposed to the risks of contamination, which were exacerbated by Covid-19.
