A former employee sued to recover severance pay based on a clause in the collective bargaining agreement (CBA) that stipulated severance was due only if the employee's departure resulted from "economic necessities" as defined by law, but the employee was dismissed for personal misconduct; the court upheld the lower court's decision rejecting the claim, reasoning that the CBA explicitly linked the right to severance to the legally defined condition of economic necessities, and since the dismissal was for fault, which falls outside that definition, the contractual obligation for severance pay was not triggered.
