Généré par l'IAThe Supreme Court resolved a legal question regarding an employer's obligation to establish a bonus fund for auxiliary staff under a 1995 regulation. The lower courts found that the employer failed to issue the required bonus regulation by the deadline, causing financial loss to the plaintiffs. The Court ruled that this breach justified civil liability under Article 471 of the Civil Code, allowing damages to be calculated based on the superior authority's subsequent regulation and available funds.
