Supreme Court dismisses appeal; termination notice period starts when management learns of employee misconduct.

The Supreme Court dismissed the employee's cassation appeal regarding the validity of his termination without notice. The lower courts found that the employer's management learned of the employee's drunkenness on May 21, 1996, triggering the one-month notice period under Article 52 of the Labor Code. The Court ruled that the notice period commences only when the managing body of the employer organization becomes aware of the misconduct, not when immediate supervisors discover it.
