Poland (PL)
Legislator summary
AI generatedThe Supreme Court dismissed the cassation appeal against a lower court decision denying social insurance to an insurance agent. The applicants argued they were employees under Art. 6(1)(4) of the Social Insurance Act, but the Court found they were self-employed business operators. The Court ruled that insurance agents operate as entrepreneurs under agency contracts, not as employees, thus falling under Art. 6(1)(5) instead.
