Employer’s obligation to issue detailed wage statements and payment of gross wage claims

The Federal Labor Court partially granted the defendant’s appeal, reversing the lower court’s order to issue specific statements of account while upholding the defendant’s liability for payment of an unspecified gross amount, leaving the first-instance judgment otherwise intact. The dispute concerned an employee’s claim for detailed payroll statements and wages, where the appellate court had previously ordered the employer to provide specific accounting details. The decisive legal rationale held that while the employer is obliged to pay the calculated wage claims, the specific request for the issuance of individual statements of account was dismissed, with the final payment obligation characterized as a gross amount under applicable labor law provisions.
