Supreme Court allows inclusion of parents' farm work in employee tenure before taking over in-laws' farm.
Legislator summary
AI generatedThe Supreme Court of Poland set aside lower court decisions that dismissed a firefighter's claim for a jubilee award based on work tenure. The plaintiff argued that periods working on his parents' farm before taking over his in-laws' farm should count toward his employee tenure. The lower courts rejected this, requiring the farm to be legally transferred or the work to occur after taking over the in-laws' property. The Supreme Court ruled that the statutory provision allows such periods to be included if they precede the assumption of the in-laws' farm, provided they occurred before formal employment began.
