Supreme Court dismisses appeal when employee's brief conflict with supervisor does not justify denying reinstatement.
Legislator-Zusammenfassung
KI-generiertThe Supreme Court of Poland dismissed the employer's appeal, reinstating the employee to his former position. The court found that the employee's brief absence due to a sudden construction project delay did not constitute a serious, long-term, or deeply rooted conflict with his supervisor. Consequently, the lower court's decision to award damages instead of reinstatement violated the legal requirement that such a remedy is only appropriate when reinstatement is unfeasible or pointless due to significant misconduct or persistent conflict.
