Dismissal of union leader dismissal during bankruptcy where order of termination must follow general clauses under Art. 8 KP.
Legislator summary
AI generatedThe Supreme Court dismissed the union leader's appeal against his termination during the employer's bankruptcy proceedings. The lower courts ruled that the termination was valid because the union representative did not simultaneously dismiss the entire workforce or engage in prolonged independent business activities. The court held that while the order of dismissal should respect general clauses of Article 8 of the Labor Code, violations thereof typically only justify compensation claims rather than invalidating the dismissal itself.
