Dismissal of appeal: dismissal of employee without prior comparison required when sole position is eliminated.
Legislator summary
AI generatedThe Supreme Court dismissed the cassation appeal filed by an employee seeking reinstatement after his contract was terminated due to organizational changes. The lower courts had initially ordered reinstatement but were overturned on appeal, which argued that the employer failed to compare the employee with others before dismissal. The court ruled that no such comparison was necessary because the employee was the only one holding the specific, now-eliminated position. Consequently, the termination was deemed valid and the appeal was rejected.
