Generato dall'IAThe Supreme Court dismissed the cassation appeal filed by Bogusław D., a director and sole manager of a municipal company, against a lower court judgment. The court upheld the finding that the employee was entitled to an anniversary bonus under collective agreement rules, which the employer had incorrectly denied, and that his failure to register statutory company changes within the legal deadline constituted a serious breach of duty. Consequently, the lower court's order to return the improperly withheld bonus and confirm the termination due to gross negligence was confirmed.
