The Supreme Court dismissed the cassation appeal filed by former employees against their dismissal following a transfer of their employer. The plaintiffs argued that Article 231 of the Labour Code violated their constitutional right to choose their profession and workplace under Article 65 of the Constitution. The court held that the statutory provision does not restrict this freedom, as employees retain the right to terminate the contract if the new position does not suit them.
