Legislator summary
AI generatedThe Supreme Court dismissed the defendant's cassation appeal regarding a labor dispute over job restructuring. The defendant argued that reassigning the plaintiff to a different role due to organizational rationalization constituted a valid termination under the specific labor law. The court rejected this, ruling that mere organizational efficiency or rationalization does not equate to the statutory 'impossibility' of employment on the original post. Consequently, the lower court's decision to reinstate the plaintiff was upheld.
