Appeal dismissed: Acting employer's self-termination of labor contract is valid under labor code.
Legislator summary
AI generatedThe Supreme Court dismissed the cassation appeal filed by a former employee against a labor contract termination. The employee, who had been appointed manager of the insolvent company, terminated his own employment contract while acting as the employer's representative. The court ruled that such a termination is legally effective because the employee was not performing work duties during the relevant period. Consequently, the court held that the labor relationship ended on July 31, 2001, and the employee was not entitled to further wages.
