Legislator summary
AI generatedThe Supreme Court dismissed the cassation appeal against a lower court ruling that upheld an employer's termination of the employment contract. The employee had exhausted his sick leave period but failed to report to work or undergo mandatory medical examinations as required by law. The court ruled that the employer was legally justified in terminating the contract without notice because the employee did not fulfill his obligation to report for work after the sick pay period ended.
