Supreme Court rules that a chief accountant performing hidden rotating overtime is not exempt from overtime pay under Art. 1514 § 1 k.p.

The Supreme Court of Poland overturned the lower court's dismissal of the plaintiff's claim for overtime pay and additional remuneration. The plaintiff, a chief accountant, argued she performed permanent overtime due to poor work organization rather than her own discretion, despite being a manager. The court held that because she lacked autonomy over her working hours and the overtime was continuous and forced by the employer, she did not fall under the statutory exemption for managers, thus entitling her to compensation.
