The Supreme Court of Poland partially allowed the cassation appeal against a labor dispute judgment. The plaintiff argued that a non-termination clause in an employment addendum was unfair given the company's financial difficulties and lack of salary increases for other staff. The court held that while the clause did not violate specific anti-discrimination statutes, it could be invalid if it violated general principles of good faith and fairness.
