The Supreme Court dismissed the cassation appeal against a labor court judgment awarding foreign currency meal allowances to an employee. The court found that the lower court correctly determined the employer's payment method did not alter the contractual obligation to pay statutory allowances, and the employer's cost minimization was lawful. Furthermore, the Supreme Court ruled that cassation proceedings cannot review the procedural allocation of first-instance litigation costs, limiting such review to the second instance judgment.
