The Supreme Court vacated the lower court's dismissal of the plaintiff's claim for unpaid bonus during a period of free leave. The plaintiff argued that despite being on leave, he continued to perform part of his duties, meaning his employment relationship remained active and he was entitled to remuneration. The court held that when an employee performs part of their work during free leave, the original employment contract is merely modified rather than suspended, thereby preserving the right to wages.
