The Supreme Court partially overturned the lower court's dismissal of Stanisław W.'s appeal regarding unpaid overtime and other claims against an industrial company. The plaintiff argued that his task-based work schedule on German construction sites did not justify the employer's refusal to pay for hours exceeding the standard limit. The court held that defining work as 'task-based' does not legally exclude the application of overtime pay provisions, thereby remanding the specific claims for recalculation while dismissing other cassation grounds.
