Chapter L’automaticità previdenziale negata dalla Cassazione agli incolpevoli collaboratori
Abstract
This paper critically examines the case law of Italian Supreme Court of Cassation that denies quasi dependant workers the application of the legal protection issuing public coverage of contributions’ omissions caused by principals who do not pay pension’s compulsory contributions due to INPS (which is the main Italian social security authority). This protection is set out in Article 2116 of the Italian Civil Code, for the case of insolvency and of undeclared work. According to the author, this case law is based on a construction that is inconsistent with the textual tenor of the law and, moreover, it does not take into account the similarity of factual conditions between quasi dependant workers and employees, to whom this legal protection applies.
