The recipient of a disability pension for whom a degree of earning incapacity of at least 75% was established permanently or for a temporary period of at least one year is exempt from payment of insurance contributions for the time that he is entitled to the pension, even if he has other income.

If he is a salaried employee, his employer must pay work injury insurance and workers’ rights in bankruptcies and corporate liquidation insurance for him.
