The Supreme Court of Poland partially overturned a lower court's dismissal of a claim for wages due to the employee's readiness to work. The plaintiff argued that Article 81 § 1 of the Labor Code grants compensation for the entire period of inactivity caused by the employer, not just the final three months. The court ruled that this specific provision imposes no temporal limit on the compensation period, thereby correcting a significant legal error regarding the scope of the right to remuneration.
