Supreme Court dismisses appeal; separate notice periods apply for each independent ground for termination under Labor Code Art. 52.
Legislator summary
AI generatedThe Supreme Court dismissed the cassation appeal filed by an employee seeking reinstatement after his contract was terminated. The court found that the employer had two independent grounds for termination: gross misconduct and the loss of necessary driving qualifications due to a prior ban. It ruled that the one-month notice period under Article 52 § 2 of the Labor Code runs separately for each distinct ground, and since the employer acted within the limit for the driving ban, the termination was lawful.
