Employee Dismissal Due to Prolonged Illness Upheld
Synthèse Legislator
Généré par l'IAAn employer notified an employee, absent for over three months due to illness and who failed to return after a formal notice, that his employment contract was terminated pursuant to a collective bargaining agreement provision concerning prolonged illness. The employee appealed this termination, claiming the lower court failed to determine if his replacement was necessary for the business's proper functioning, thereby overlooking a plea alleging an unjustified dismissal. The appellate court, however, upheld the termination, ruling that the employee's extended absence, which necessitated his replacement, constituted a genuine and serious cause for dismissal, legally justifying the decision.
