Court holds that engaging in business excludes farmers from social insurance under the Farmers' Social Insurance Act.

The Supreme Court of Poland dismissed the appeal of the Kras against the Social Insurance Fund's decision to terminate the applicants' farmers' social insurance coverage. The applicants had previously been covered under the farmers' scheme but later engaged in commercial business activities, leading the Fund to exclude them based on statutory requirements. The court ruled that the legislative intent of Article 5a of the Farmers' Social Insurance Act prohibits dual coverage, meaning once a farmer engages in business, they cannot return to the farmers' insurance system.
