KCC 592/2017
Background
An employee filed a case against a company before the court. He requested the court to order the company to pay his entitlements including compensation for work injury and severance payment.
The court ruled that the company should pay the employee 11210.625 Dinars.
The company appealed the ruling before the court of appeal. The court upheld the appealed ruling.
The company appealed the ruling before the court of cassation. The company said in its grounds of appeal that the ruling had insufficient evidence of causation. The company said that the notice period was meant to end on 16/06/2015 but the employee had stopped coming to his work in 30/04/2015 and therefore he did not deserve the amount for the remaining notice period.
Decision
The court said that this argument was valid. The court said that the case documents had revealed that the employee had stopped working before the end of the notice period.
