Polish Supreme Court dismissed appeal, ruling economic rationalization is valid grounds for changing employment terms.

The Supreme Court of Poland dismissed the cassation appeal filed by an employee seeking reinstatement after his job position was reduced from full to half-time. The court found that the employer's goal to rationalize municipal expenses and reduce costs was a legitimate economic reason for the change in employment conditions. Although the lower court incorrectly calculated the specific savings amount, the court held that the existence of any cost reduction justified the measure regardless of the exact financial figure.
