Is the income received from the Social Security Institution deducted from the compensation?

Yes, in the actual calculation, the capitalized value of the income granted by the Social Security Institution is offset against the compensation that can be claimed from the employer. This tool does not include that offset.

Can compensation be claimed without employer fault?

As a rule, since the employer's breach of its duty of care and fault are required, the fault rate must be assessed based on the specific circumstances of the case.
