Questione giuridica chiave
Whether the December 1992 bonus had to be included in the insured's 1992 salary for pension calculation
Decisione estratta
Yes. Under the clear plan wording, bonuses paid during the year form part of that year's annual salary.
Motivazione estratta
The regulation defined annual salary as base salary plus bonuses and gratifications paid during the same calendar year. The bonus was actually paid in 1992 and thus belonged to 1992 salary.
