Supreme Court allows partial damages claim for employment guarantee breach using civil code and labor code provisions.

The Supreme Court remanded the case to the Court of Appeal in Gdańsk for a new decision on costs. The plaintiff sought a fixed sum for breach of an employment guarantee during a corporate restructuring, while the defendant argued for a reduced amount based on economic justification. The court held that such fixed damages can be assessed as either compensation or a penalty under specific labor and civil code articles, requiring a fresh evaluation of the contract's intent.
