Supreme Court rules pension periods must be calculated independently when reported under new revaluation law.
Legislator summary
AI generatedThe Supreme Court of Poland dismissed the final judgment and remanded the case for reconsideration regarding a pensioner's claim to include university study years. The applicant argued that periods of resistance activity and university studies should be calculated separately under the new 1991 revaluation law, while lower courts had applied a combined calculation method. The Court held that for periods reported after the law's enactment but before the pension was granted, each must be evaluated independently to protect acquired rights, necessitating a new calculation by the social insurance office.
