The Supreme Court dismissed the employee's cassation appeal regarding the sole cause for termination. The court found that the employer's decision to reorganize the laboratory and the employee's refusal to accept the new location and conditions were both material factors. Consequently, the organizational reasons did not constitute the exclusive ground for dismissal under the relevant labor law provisions.
