Supreme Court allows appeal when case concerns legal qualification of work relationship type rather than just contribution base calculation.
Legislator summary
AI generatedThe Supreme Court of Poland allowed the appeal against the appellate court's dismissal of the case. The applicant argued that the core issue was the legal classification of the work relationship as either an employment contract or a mandate contract, rather than merely the calculation of social security contributions. The court held that while the specific contribution base is determined by the relationship type, disputes regarding the qualification of the work relationship itself constitute a question of law and thus permit cassation.
