Employer's early termination date in immediate dismissal notice does not violate labor law or justify employee claims.
Poland (PL)
Legislator summary
AI generatedThe Supreme Court dismissed the legal question regarding whether an employer's early termination date in an immediate dismissal notice violates labor law. Both instances had previously awarded damages to the employee for the retroactive effect of the notice, but the Supreme Court clarified that such a date is not a material element of the employer's declaration of will. The court ruled that while the contract cannot terminate before the employee receives the notice, the employer may specify a future date, and the employee's remedy lies in correction or compensation for readiness, not in claims under Article 56 of the Labor Code.
