AI generatedThe Supreme Court dismissed the cassation appeal filed by a pensioner against a social security office decision regarding disability pension eligibility. The applicant argued for the inclusion of agricultural work periods from his parents' farm, but the court found the work hours insufficient to meet statutory requirements. The decision relied on the principle that agricultural activities must be performed in a full-time capacity to qualify as employment for social security purposes.
