Polish Supreme Court dismissed cassation regarding a failed employment offer expiration due to lack of timely confirmation.
Legislator summary
AI generatedThe Supreme Court dismissed the cassation appeal filed by an employee against a lower court's decision to reject his claim for reinstatement. The employee had submitted a letter offering to change his job title, but failed to confirm this offer within the statutory period required for it to remain binding. The court ruled that the employer's acceptance was legally ineffective because the offer had expired due to the employee's silence and subsequent withdrawal of the proposal.
