Supreme Court dismissed appeal; employer validly reduced hours when job scope didn't justify full-time work.
Legislator summary
AI generatedThe Supreme Court dismissed the cassation appeal filed by an employee against her employer's decision to reduce her working hours. The employee argued that the dismissal was ineffective, while the employer contended that the job's scope did not require full-time employment and they could not assign additional tasks matching her qualifications. The court ruled that the lower court correctly applied labor law principles, noting that an employer is not obligated to maintain full-time employment when the work volume does not justify it.
