The court admitted the appeal in the interest of the law and held that Article 562(1) of Law No. 263/2010 (as amended by Law No. 197/2021) grants *ope legis* a 13-year reduction of the standard retirement age for persons who completed a 25-year contribution period corresponding to at least 30 years of work in jobs listed under Article 30(1)(i) of that law, regardless of how the employer classified the work under prior legislation and regardless of the type of social insurance contribution owed by the employer. This binding interpretation prevails, making the reduction applicable irrespective of prior job classification or contribution type. The dispute concerned the correct interpretation of statutory retirement-age reductions for hazardous work, and the decisive legal basis was the plain wording of Articles 562(1) and 30(1)(i) of Law No. 263/2010, as amended, establishing an unconditional statutory entitlement.
