AI generatedThe Supreme Court quashed the Regional Court's judgment and remanded the case for retrial due to significant legal errors. The appellant argued that the employer failed to apply Article 56 of the Civil Code and Article 300 of the Labor Code regarding job reorganization and equal pay after a regulation expired. The Court held that the lower court incorrectly relied on an obsolete regulation and ignored the statutory duty to transfer the employee to an equivalent position with equal pay upon reorganization.
