Supreme Court quashes labor court ruling for missing 7-day notice, citing employer's bad conduct.

The Supreme Court quashed the lower court's dismissal of the employee's appeal regarding her failure to report readiness for work within seven days. The employee had attempted to return to work multiple times before the final deadline, but the employer refused her entry and challenged the prior reinstatement order, effectively blocking her access. The court held that the lower courts erred by ignoring the employer's obstructive behavior and the employee's repeated attempts to resume work, which should have counted as valid declarations of intent.
