Généré par l'IAThe Supreme Court dismissed the cassation appeal filed by an employee against a lower court's decision to reject his claim for employment status and wage equalization. The plaintiff argued that his factual performance of duties should override the written civil contracts, while the defendant contended the contracts were valid and distinct from employment relationships. The court ruled that the existence of a civil contract does not automatically transform into an employment relationship merely because work was performed, and no legal provision supports the automatic conversion of invalid civil contracts into valid employment contracts.

Généré par l'IAArt. 31 § 1 and § 2 of the Labour Code; Art. 410 of the Civil Code: The performance of work under a civil contract does not automatically establish an employment relationship, nor does the invalidity of a civil contract due to unauthorized representation convert it into a valid employment contract.
