Questione giuridica chiave
Whether occupational pension contributions for employees working only part of a year must be calculated on an annual salary basis.
Decisione estratta
Yes. Under Art. 2 para. 2 LPP, if employment lasts less than one year, the annual salary is the salary the worker would have earned for a full year; the foundation correctly applied that method.
Motivazione estratta
The court held that the annual-salary method is mandated by law and that the foundation nevertheless claimed contributions only for the months actually worked. The appellant's alternative calculation produced the same result.
