Civil court ruled mandatory newspaper apology for workplace harassment is disproportionate and violates personal rights.
Poland (PL)
Legislator summary
AI generatedThe Supreme Court partially dismissed the plaintiff's claim for a newspaper apology after finding the lower court's order disproportionate. The plaintiff alleged workplace harassment caused health issues, while the defendant argued for a public apology. The court held that since the harassment was known only to a narrow group of employees, a newspaper publication was excessive and violated the plaintiff's personal rights.
Legislator headnote
AI generatedArt. 24 § 1 k.c.; The obligation to publish an apology must be proportional to the scope of the violated personal interest, and public media publication is inappropriate when the harm was confined to a limited circle of employees.
