The Supreme Court summarizes theses of rulings of the Department of Administrative Cases on essential issues of social law.

For the convenience of those applying the law, rulings are grouped under the following categories: unemployment insurance, state social benefits, insurance period, the state pension, the right to request early retirement pension, sickness, maternity, paternity and parental benefits. The summaries cover the period from 2004 till the end of 2017 (depending on the time of the completion of the summary).

In a separate compilation those Supreme Court rulings are distinguished, in which it is decided on application of the European Union Regulation regarding issues of coordination of social benefits and application of cross-border agreements. This compilation summarizes case-law established after 2010.

The goal of compiling case-law is to give an insight into the theses of the Department of Administrative Cases of the Supreme Court. Therefore, the compilations are mainly composed as summaries of findings in the rulings in the form of quotations.
