The Supreme Court dismissed the employer's cassation appeal regarding a labor dispute where the employee sought reinstatement. The lower court found that the employer failed to explicitly state the reasons for terminating the employee's contract conditions in the written notice. The Court ruled that the employer's internal knowledge of the reasons does not substitute for the legal requirement of providing those reasons in writing to the employee.
