The Supreme Court quashed the lower labor court's judgment regarding the dismissal of employees for participating in an illegal strike. The court found that the lower court failed to determine whether the strike organizer knowingly violated legal strike procedures by failing to obtain majority union member approval. Consequently, the case was remanded for a new trial to establish the specific circumstances of the organizer's knowledge and intent.

Art. 20 ust. 1 ustawy o rozwiązywaniu sporów zbiorowych; Art. 26 ust. 2 ustawy o rozwiązywaniu sporów zbiorowych; Art. 393 § 1 k.p.c.: The labor court must ascertain whether a union leader knowingly organized an illegal strike without majority approval, as mere participation by regular employees does not automatically constitute a serious breach of duties without proof of subjective awareness of illegality.
