Labor law ruling: sleeping on company grounds after work is not a serious breach without intent.
Legislator summary
AI generatedThe Supreme Court reversed the lower court's dismissal of the employee's appeal, ordering his reinstatement and awarding back pay. The court found that sleeping on the company premises after work hours did not constitute a serious breach of duty because the employee lacked the intent or gross negligence required by law. Consequently, the employer could not justify the termination based on a violation of basic employee obligations.
Legislator headnote
AI generatedArt. 52 § 1 Kodeksu pracy; A serious breach of basic employee obligations requires intent or gross negligence, meaning sleeping on company grounds after work without malicious intent does not justify dismissal.
