Supreme Court dismisses claim that basic wage must automatically rise with minimum wage under collective agreement.

The Supreme Court dismissed the plaintiffs' cassation appeal against a labor court ruling that rejected their wage equalization claim. The plaintiffs argued that their employer failed to automatically adjust their base wage to meet the statutory minimum wage requirement under the internal compensation system. The court held that such automatic adjustment violates the principle of collective bargaining, as wage structures should be determined through social partner negotiations rather than unilateral statutory application.
