Supreme Court ruled that employer dismissal notices need no reason for termination of appointment contracts.
Poland (PL)
Legislator summary
AI generatedThe Supreme Court resolved a legal question regarding whether employer dismissal notices for appointment contracts must state a reason. The plaintiff, a former director, argued that the lack of a stated cause for his dismissal should entitle him to damages. The court held that such notices do not require a reason because the institution of appointment implies the right to dismiss without cause. Consequently, the plaintiff's claim for damages based on the absence of a stated reason was rejected.
