Agricultural Social Insurance Fund Liability for Birth Grant to Non-Salaried Farmer
Synthèse Legislator
Généré par l'IAThe case concerned whether the agricultural social insurance fund was liable to pay a birth grant ("prime de layette") to the head of a farming household, who was affiliated with the agricultural insurance scheme for non-salaried agricultural operators, for the birth of a child, where his salaried spouse was not eligible for the equivalent benefit under the general social security scheme. The lower court had ruled in favor of the farmer, reasoning that the birth grant was a family benefit and that in cases of doubt, rules applicable to general scheme salaried workers should apply, and since the agricultural fund handled family benefits, it was also liable for the grant. However, the Court of Cassation quashed this decision, reasoning that the birth grant under the agricultural scheme was exclusively reserved for individuals affiliated with the social insurance section for agricultural employees, and since the farmer was affiliated with the scheme for non-salaried operators, the lower court had violated the relevant regulation.
