The Supreme Court dismissed the railway company's cassation appeal against a lower court ruling regarding social security contributions. The company argued that severance pay awarded to employees upon reinstatement was not income subject to social security contributions because no employment relationship existed during the period of unemployment. The court held that the court-awarded compensation is income subject to contributions once the employee decides to return to work, as the obligation to pay arises from the re-establishment of the employment relationship.
