The Supreme Court resolved a legal question regarding whether a training allowance constitutes sick pay under social insurance law. The court found that the applicant was entitled to an unemployment benefit, which explicitly excludes the right to sick pay. Consequently, the training allowance received during medical leave was not considered sick pay.
