The rule governing an employee's entitlement to compensation reverts to the terms of the contract agreed upon between him and his employer. It is impermissible to forge invoices or claim compensation for expenses not incurred, unless the employer is informed and approves the payment. Forging invoices and medical reports to obtain compensation is forbidden.
