Financial crisis of a university department justifies terminating an academic's contract if selection is non-discriminatory.
Poland (PL)
Legislator summary
AI generatedThe Supreme Court dismissed the cassation appeal filed by an academic teacher seeking reinstatement after her contract was terminated. The court found that the department's severe financial crisis provided a valid reason for termination, as the decision was based on a non-discriminatory evaluation of scientific output by the faculty council. Consequently, the court ruled that the employer's financial difficulties did not preclude the lawful dismissal of the employee.
