The Supreme Court dismissed the employee's cassation appeal and upheld the lower courts' decision to reject the claim for damages. The employee had been suspended from work without pay for nearly eight months while the employer offered a new position, which the employee refused to accept. The court ruled that the employer's unilateral suspension was valid and could be revoked at any time, making the employee's refusal to return to work a clear breach of contract.
