Poland (PL)
Legislator summary
AI generatedThe Supreme Court quashed the appellate court's dismissal of a claim for excessive compensation arising from a collective agreement. The plaintiff sought damages based on a promise of long-term employment, while the employer argued the compensation was unreasonably high and blocked rationalization mechanisms. The court ruled that such privileges must be verified judicially to ensure they do not violate good faith, fairness, or the employer's legitimate interests.
Legislator headnote
