Supreme Court dismisses appeal; collective agreement interpretation requires joint explanation by parties under Art. 2416 KP.

The Supreme Court dismissed the cassation appeal filed by the employer against a lower court awarding a jubilee bonus to the employee. The lower court interpreted a collective agreement clause to require three years of service, allowing the employee to count prior employment periods, whereas the employer argued for a strict literal reading. The Supreme Court ruled that Article 2416 of the Labour Code does not grant parties a monopoly on interpreting the agreement and that the parties failed to provide a joint explanation of the clause's meaning.
