Early miner's pension rights do not justify dismissal but allow priority selection in economic layoffs.

The Supreme Court dismissed the appeal to restore the employee's job, upholding the lower court's decision that obtaining early miner's pension rights does not automatically justify dismissal. The court found that while the employer could cite these rights as a criterion for selecting which workers to lay off first during a mining crisis, the mere acquisition of pension eligibility was not a valid ground for termination itself. Consequently, the court ruled that the employee's age and the specific economic necessity of the employer must be considered separately to justify the dismissal.
