Fixed-Term Contract Termination Due to Permanent Disability and Lack of Reasonable Accommodation

Fixed-Term Contract Termination Due to Permanent Disability and Lack of Reasonable Accommodation: A worker, employed under a contract for a fixed term that was renewed several times, was dismissed following a workplace accident that resulted in a permanent partial disability preventing him from performing his usual tasks, despite a medical opinion confirming his ability to resume work in a different capacity; the appellate court confirmed the dismissal was justified because the employer had demonstrated that the worker's disability made reassignment impossible without fundamentally altering the employment contract's essential obligations, a sufficient cause for termination under the applicable fixed-term contract regulations, which the high court upheld.
