that the taxpayer – a certified professional enrolled with the
pension fund for chartered tax advisors - is entitled to the reunion of
pension contribution paid to said fund with contribution paid to INPS.

Income from participation to capital companies: not taxable for social contribution purposes
Corte di Cassazione, 20 August 2019, no. 21540
With
judgement no. 21540/2019, Corte di Cassazione – Labour section
– pronounced on the calculation of INPS taxable income for
self-employed professionals who perform duties requiring enrolment
under the artisan section of INPS.
Social contribution duties must not consider income from the mere
participation to a company, with no performance of work, since income
disconnected from work is to be considered capital income and not
subject to pension and social contribution charges.

apprentice.

organization of work, especially on the apprentice’s duties,
instructions, information and training on inherent risks, while the
injured subject’s recklessness in taking an initiative leading to
injury doesn’t matter.
