Abstract

This paper analyzes the importance of Social Security risk management (diseases and accidents) in the working environment, through the special retirement benefit. Therefore, it seeks to preliminarily establish a relationship between working environment, social security and risk theory, with nanotechnology as descriptive cutout for the analysis of new risks (post-industrial). Following, is highlighted obstacles and contradictions within the law system itself (intrassistêmicos conflicts) as the monetization of risk in the workplace and the legal criteria for the characterization of the particular activity in the Social Security Law, is last, with special attention to the problem involving the analysis and jurisdictional valuation of proof, proof of special activity, particularly in scientific certainty contexts. Finally, they analyze the elements probability and magnitude, presented as criteria to guide the characterization and verification of dangerous activities or risk, as well as legitimate judicial decisions that bind the future, which marks the possibility of the judge to make use of the principles prevention and/or care. The study thus demonstrates the need for an inter- disciplinary approach to a better interpretation of scientific information (conclusive or not) by Law in an attempt to reconcile social protection with the precautionary principle and, above all, enforce preventive function (broad sense) of Social Security, in order to anticipate the damage and internalize risks (nano) technology, which gives rise to different bonds of solidarity in social security matters.
