Legislator summary
AI generatedThe Supreme Court dismissed the Social Insurance Institution's appeal and remanded the case for retrial. The applicant, a deputy director, sought early retirement based on factory closure grounds, but the lower court rejected it, noting he was not the actual director. The Court held that the specific employment contract type does not matter, but the Social Insurance Institution must verify if the termination was genuinely caused by the required economic or organizational reasons.
