Polish Supreme Court dismissed appeal; collective agreement wording insufficient to count prior employment for pension severance.

The Polish Supreme Court dismissed the cassation appeal filed by an employee against a lower court ruling. The employee argued that a collective agreement required counting all prior employment periods for higher pension severance, while the company contended the text only applied to continuous service. The court held that the specific wording distinguishing between groups meant prior periods could not be automatically included for those transferred from state enterprises.
