Generato dall'IAThe Supreme Court vacated the lower court's dismissal of the plaintiff's claim for reinstatement while upholding the employer's right to terminate under specific group termination provisions. The court found that while the employer could legally terminate the contract due to job elimination, the lower court incorrectly applied Article 45 § 2 of the Labor Code to deny the plaintiff's request. The decision clarifies that procedural violations in terminating protected employees trigger specific sanctions under Article 45 § 3, preventing the court from ignoring the employee's alternative claims for reinstatement.
