The Supreme Court of Poland overturned the appellate court's decision, ruling that the housing allowance for teachers is not part of employment income. The court found that the allowance lacks the personal and indivisible characteristics of remuneration, instead functioning as a derivative of the right to reside in the workplace. Consequently, the court held that this benefit does not constitute a basis for calculating social security contributions or pension rights.
