Employer liability for social insurance overpayment when rent authority issues decision based on employer's data.
Legislator summary
AI generatedThe Supreme Court dismissed the Social Insurance Institution's claim against the employer for returning overpaid coal allowance benefits. The employer had notified the social security office of a workers' council decision to stop providing coal allowances, prompting the office to increase benefits based on the employer's submitted data. The court ruled that since the rent authority accepted the employer's information without error and the beneficiary did not object, the employer is not liable for the resulting overpayment.
