The Supreme Court dismissed the cassation appeal filed by the employer against a labor court awarding wages to a foreign national. The employer argued that the employment contract was void due to the lack of required work permits and official consent, citing the invalidity sanction in the Civil Code. The court ruled that the absence of permits does not automatically invalidate the contract if the employee actually performed work under conditions matching an employment relationship, thereby upholding the labor court's decision based on the factual employment relationship.
