Legislator summary

AI generated

The Supreme Court reversed the lower court's decision to reinstate two railway workers who were dismissed for performing unauthorized tasks. The workers had obtained explicit permission from their direct supervisor to repair a vehicle during their on-call duty hours. The court ruled that obtaining such permission negates the illegality of the actions, meaning the dismissal for violating work regulations was unjustified.
