Poland (PL)
Legislator summary
AI generatedThe Supreme Court of Poland allowed the Social Insurance Fund's appeal, overturning a lower court decision that excluded teacher housing allowances from social security contributions. The court found that these allowances, granted under the Teachers' Charter, constitute income from employment within an employment relationship rather than a social benefit. Consequently, the court ruled that the allowances must be included in the base for calculating pension and disability insurance contributions.
