Labor dispute dismissed: parties agreed on travel reimbursement only via mutual understanding, overriding regulation.
Legislator summary
AI generatedThe Supreme Court dismissed the cassation appeal in a labor dispute where a doctor sought additional reimbursement for medical specialization training. The lower courts found that the employer and employee mutually agreed, due to financial constraints, to limit benefits to travel costs only, despite a regulation allowing broader conditions. The court ruled that this mutual understanding legally established the terms of the arrangement, preventing the application of the regulation's default provisions.
