Early retirement right under Art. 29 Social Security Act does not apply to mandatory labor contract workers.
Legislator summary
AI generatedThe Supreme Court dismissed the request to clarify whether mandatory labor contract workers qualify for early retirement under Article 29 of the Social Security Act. The Social Security Institution and the lower courts denied the claim because they interpreted the term 'employee' strictly as excluding those under mandatory labor contracts. The Court ruled that the statutory definition of 'employee' in Article 29 does not encompass workers under mandatory labor contracts, thereby denying the early retirement right to the applicant.
