Supreme Court allows appeal against dismissal of bonus claim, ruling administrative regulations constitute valid reward rules.
Legislator summary
AI generatedThe Supreme Court partially allowed the cassation appeal, remanding the case for a new decision on the bonus claim. The plaintiff argued that the Ministry's administrative regulations constituted valid reward rules under labor law, while the lower court dismissed the claim based on outdated legal interpretations. The Court held that such regulations define reward principles and that changing them without employee consent requires a notice-terminating dismissal.
