Employee entitled to single compensation for wrongful termination even if employer issued multiple notices.
Legislator summary
AI generatedThe Supreme Court partially allowed the plaintiff's cassation appeal, overturning the lower court's decision on specific compensation points. The case involved an employee who received multiple termination notices from her employer during a period of financial distress. The court ruled that statutory compensation for wrongful termination compensates for a single loss of employment, making subsequent notices in the same period legally redundant. Consequently, the court determined that the employee is entitled to only one compensation award regardless of how many times the employer attempted to terminate the contract.
