Representing a client in a case regarding  employees’ discrimination due to the date of  establishing the employment relationship. The case has ended in the victory before the Supreme Court (II PK 16/15). Taking into account the cassation appeal of the Law Firm, the Supreme Court has decided that the date of starting employment in the Company cannot be deemed to be a basis for  differentiating employees, as it does not refer either to the plaintiff’s personal characteristics or to the prohibited criterion of differentiating due to employment for the definite or indefinite period of time (or full-time or part-time employment).
