Legislator summary
AI generatedThe Supreme Court vacated the lower court's dismissal of the plaintiff's claim for vacation pay compensation. The court found that the lower court incorrectly applied civil code rules regarding time calculation to determine when the employee acquired vacation rights. Consequently, the court ruled that labor law principles dictate the vacation right was acquired on the last day of the notice period, entitling the employee to compensation.
