The Supreme Court quashed the appellate court's dismissal of the plaintiff's claim for an anniversary bonus and premium. The plaintiff argued that his university studies completed after his initial graduation should count toward his 40-year work tenure, while the employer contended the studies were not completed. The court ruled that obtaining a degree constitutes the completion of studies under the relevant regulation, thereby validating the inclusion of the study period in the bonus calculation.
