The Supreme Court quashed the lower court's dismissal of the employee's claim to return to work after his contract was terminated for refusing medical tests. The court found that the lower court failed to verify whether the employee had sought further medical advice after initially refusing the tests, violating procedural rules. Consequently, the court determined that the employer did not prove the employee committed a serious breach of duty, necessitating a retrial.
