Synthèse Legislator
Généré par l'IAThe Supreme Court dismissed the Social Insurance Office's cassation appeal, allowing the use of a court judgment ordering wage recovery as the basis for calculating sick pay. The plaintiff argued that since the employer failed to pay the wages due to financial difficulties, the amount could not serve as the calculation base. The court ruled that a court judgment establishing the right to wages has the same legal effect as actual payment, thereby validating the wage amount for benefit calculations regardless of whether the money was physically transferred.
