The Supreme Court dismissed the cassation appeal filed by an employee against a labor court judgment. The employee claimed a wage increase was owed after taking over a cashier's duties following a reduction in the store's workload. The court held that the employer had no obligation to allocate savings from reduced staffing to raise remaining employees' wages and that the employee's initiative in modernizing the facility did not create a right to extra pay.
