Employer cannot spend social fund money without union agreement violating social criteria.
Legislator summary
AI generatedThe Supreme Court quashed the appellate court's dismissal of the union's claim for reimbursement of social fund expenditures. The union argued that the employer spent funds on an employee festival without prior written agreement, violating the fund's regulations and social criteria. The court found the lower court's reasoning superficial and failed to address the statutory requirement for union consent and social criteria compliance.
