The Supreme Court of Poland revoked the lower court's dismissal of the plaintiff's claim for additional compensation and bonuses. The court found that the lower court failed to properly evaluate whether a termination agreement aimed at avoiding automatic continuity of employment violated the statutory prohibition against worsening work conditions during a business takeover. Consequently, the Supreme Court ordered the case to be retried to determine if the employee's consent to the wage reduction was valid under the specific circumstances of the transfer.

Art. 231 § 1 k.p.; Art. 398 § 1 k.p.c.: A termination agreement intended to prevent the automatic continuation of employment upon a business takeover is void if it contradicts the mandatory rule prohibiting the employer from worsening work conditions due to the takeover, regardless of the employee's consent.
