Supreme Court quashes labor court ruling for missing facts on employer-side termination reasons under special protection law.
Legislator summary
AI generatedThe Supreme Court quashed the lower court's judgment and remanded the case for a new trial. The plaintiff was dismissed from employment due to alleged employee negligence, but the lower court failed to determine if the employer's relocation was the primary cause of termination. The court ruled that without clear facts on whether the employer would have terminated the employee anyway, the special protective provisions of the Act on Special Rules for Termination Due to Employer's Reasons must apply.
