The Insurance Court upheld the Pension Board's decision that an employee employed from 1971 to 1974 was covered by the employee pension scheme. The court found the individual was sufficiently subordinate to the company's leadership and supervision, establishing a formal employment relationship rather than an independent contractor status. Consequently, the claim for pension benefits was granted based on this established subordination.
