The Supreme Court dismissed the plaintiff's cassation appeal regarding equal pay and a monetary equivalent for vacation leave. The court found that the plaintiff, as CEO, shared management duties with another executive, meaning his work did not objectively match the defendant's other employees. Consequently, the court ruled that the statutory requirement for equal pay could not be applied because the specific job functions were not identical or repeatable in a way that allowed for fair comparison.
