A basic aspect is the causality relationship between injury and developed work, that means it can be as a consequence or for the occasion of the work. The accident in mission term refers to those accidents occurred to the worker in the performance of a mission entrusted by the employer in a place different from their usual work, or on the way having to go. Its consideration can be controversial in cases of traumatic or sudden events, specially cardiovascular events, and even more in those cases of biological infection of a worker displaced to an endemic area. The Spanish Jurisprudence has been restricting the aspects related to working time when talking about accidents in mission. A greater international collaboration and the settle of homogeneous criteria should be taken in order to achieve improvements in labour risk prevention.
