School commute periods during agricultural work do not count as employment for pension purposes under Polish law.
Poland (PL)
Legislator summary
AI generatedThe Supreme Court dismissed the cassation appeal against a lower court ruling that excluded specific agricultural work periods from the insured's pension contribution history. The insured argued that his time working on his parents' farm during school holidays should count, but the court found his daily 160 km commute to a technical school prevented him from performing substantial agricultural duties. Consequently, the court held these periods did not meet the legal definition of agricultural employment required for pension accrual.
