The Polish Supreme Court dismissed the plaintiff's cassation appeal regarding her termination from a dental practice. The lower court found that her frequent and prolonged sick leaves, totaling over 300 days across three years, disrupted the practice's operations and created a toxic work environment. The court ruled that the employer was not required to consider the possibility of the employee's health recovery when deciding on dismissal in such circumstances.
