Poland (PL)
Legislator summary
AI generatedThe Supreme Court dismissed the cassation appeal filed by two employees against their dismissal from a labor office. The court found that the employer conducted collective dismissals due to economic restructuring, which legally excluded union audit committee members from the special job security protections of the relevant Act. Consequently, the employer's unilateral termination actions were valid and could not be challenged under general civil law provisions regarding voidable acts.
