The Supreme Court of Poland dismissed the Social Insurance Fund's decision to exclude the applicant from mandatory social security coverage. The Fund argued that the employment contract was void because the company director lacked proper representation authority under commercial law, and the hiring was a sham to evade social security obligations. The Court ruled that while the director's management duties required representation, the specific project design work performed did not, allowing the employment relationship to be valid for social security purposes.
