Supreme Court dismissed early retirement claim for farmer caring for disabled child due to insufficient work history.

The Supreme Court dismissed the cassation appeal filed by Andrzej M. against the Social Insurance Institution regarding his right to early retirement. Although the lower courts recognized his status as a caregiver for his disabled son and his long-term agricultural work, the Supreme Court found he failed to meet the mandatory 25-year work requirement at the time of his last employment termination. The court ruled that the specific regulation granting early retirement to caregivers applies only to employees, excluding farmers, and that the applicant did not satisfy the necessary work duration conditions.
