Supreme Court quashes appeal ruling on maternity benefits due to unclear employment relationship facts.

The Supreme Court quashed the appellate court's decision granting the claimant sick and maternity benefits by remanding the case for a new trial. The lower court had established a formal employment relationship between the claimant and her mother's business, despite the claimant previously running her own trade. The Supreme Court found the appellate court's reasoning insufficient to prove the employment was genuine rather than a sham to secure social security benefits, particularly noting the lack of a mandatory pre-employment medical certificate. Consequently, the case was sent back to the labor and social security court for a proper factual determination of the employment status.
