Employer not liable for miscarriage if employee voluntarily resigns without mistake under Polish Civil Code.
Legislator summary
AI generatedThe Supreme Court dismissed the plaintiff's cassation appeal against a labor court ruling that rejected her claim for damages. The court found the employee voluntarily resigned without a mistake of will, despite the employer stating no suitable work existed for pregnant women. Consequently, the employer was not liable for the subsequent miscarriage, which the court deemed not causally linked to the termination.
