Poland (PL)
Legislator summary
AI generatedThe Supreme Court quashed the lower court's decision dismissing the employee's claim for reinstatement and remanded the case for a new trial. The employee had altered her personnel file to change her job title and salary, which the lower courts deemed a serious breach of duty. The Supreme Court found the lower courts failed to comprehensively evaluate evidence, specifically missing a prior employer letter suggesting a mutual agreement on the higher title, and incorrectly assumed the employee sought illegal benefits rather than correcting a clerical error.
