Kernrechtsfrage
Whether the employee had to be notified of the contribution decision and allowed to participate before assessing paritary AVS contributions.
Extrahierter Entscheid
Yes. Because the assessment affected A.________ directly and the amount was significant, the fund and the cantonal court had to ensure he was notified and could be heard.
Extrahierte Begründung
A contribution decision binds both employer and employee. As a rule, the employee must be notified and able to challenge the assessment whenever salary-related contributions are at stake, subject only to practical exceptions not applicable here.
