Employee with required tenure entitled to free share purchase rights despite termination before privatization law entry into force.
Legislator summary
AI generatedThe Supreme Court quashed the lower court's dismissal of the plaintiff's claim for free share acquisition rights. The court found that the lower court incorrectly interpreted the privatization law, requiring termination under specific 1989 regulations, whereas the statute covers terminations caused by the same economic reasons regardless of the specific legal basis used. Consequently, the case was remanded for a new decision on the plaintiff's eligibility.
