15/09/2026

The FREMAP Special Benefits Committee approved a total of 420 special benefits over the course of the first half of 2026, amounting to 1,506,540.46 euros, intended to respond to situations of need arising from work accidents and work-related illnesses.

These benefits contribute to improving the quality of life, promoting personal autonomy, and supporting recovery, adaptation, or professional reorientation processes for the protected individuals.

Of the total benefits granted, 205 were aimed at recovery and health, facilitating financial support for companion expenses in hospital admissions and medical consultations.

As for the spheres of ​​autonomy and daily life, 46 benefits were approved with the goal of promoting personal independence through prostheses and technical aids not included in the common portfolio of services, home support and home adaptation.

In addition, 37 benefits were granted with the aim of improving mobility, including the purchase and adaptation of vehicles and the adaptation of essential aids for carrying out basic activities of daily living.

76 benefits were awarded for training and career reorientation, aimed at facilitating new job opportunities through training programmes, scholarships and career reorientation processes.

Meanwhile, 56 were awarded for other personal and family needs, including the maintenance of the usual residence, supplements to the death benefit or training actions for the care of people in a situation of great disability.

June saw the highest activity of the 6-month period

The highest volume of activity in the period was reached in June, with 122 benefits granted for a total amount of 410,720.78 euros.

Beyond the figures, these benefits represent FREMAP's commitment to people going through particularly complex circumstances as a result of a work accident or work-related illness.

Each benefit addresses a specific need and can contribute to regaining autonomy, adapting the personal environment, coping with everyday difficulties, or facilitating access to new professional opportunities.

In this regard, the work carried out by the Social Work Area is fundamental, providing support, guidance and individualised assessment to identify the most appropriate response to each situation.

Because behind every benefit there is a specific need. And behind every need, there is a person.
