Legislator summary

The Supreme Court dismissed the plaintiff's cassation appeal against a lower court ruling awarding wage equalization. The plaintiff argued that a collective agreement entitled her to compensation because her pay base was calculated at 50% of the minimum wage, which she claimed was lower than required. The court held that the agreement only grants a right to equalization if the base was actually established at that specific lower level, and since the base was correctly set at 50%, the claim failed.
