Poland (PL)
Legislator summary
AI generatedThe Supreme Court dismissed the cassation appeal filed by two employees against their employer's termination. The court found that the employer illegally dismissed the workers without union consent and violated labor protection statutes, yet the termination was not a response to misconduct. The court ruled that providing copies of documents to police upon having reasonable grounds to suspect a crime by management does not constitute a breach of loyalty or unfair competition.
