The Swedish Arbitration Court dismissed the union's claim for damages against the employer and the association. The union alleged a breach of the collective agreement, arguing the employer failed to respond to a formal notice requiring an answer. The court ruled that the employer's inaction constituted a breach, but the specific procedural outcome resulted in the dismissal of the union's substantive claim for damages.
