Court ruled renewal fees for radio programs were compensation for copyright, not comparable work wages for pension calculation.
Legislator summary
AI generatedThe Insurance Court modified the Social Security Board's decision regarding the applicant's pension amount. The Board had excluded renewal fees from radio program broadcasts when calculating the pension, treating them as non-work-related compensation. The court determined these fees were payments for the use of artistic copyright rather than wages for performed labor, thus they were not comparable to work earnings. Consequently, the court allowed the inclusion of these fees in the pension calculation to ensure equitable treatment.
