Employer Cannot Fire Employee Without Reason
28.10.2010
According to the decision of the Supreme Court of Georgia, employer cannot groundlessly fire his/her employee. Lawyers clarify that the Supreme Court can enact a case law. When a Supreme Court passes decision, district courts shall also discuss cases in accordance to this decision.
“Since Georgia has joined the Social Charter of Europe, whose Article 24 – “a” obliged the parties to recognize the labor rights, refuse to stop employment without grounded reasons, on April 28, 2010 Supreme Court of Georgia stated that Article 37 Part I –“d” of the Labor Code of Georgia cannot be clarified as a unilateral right of the employer to fire the employee without any grounds,” said lawyer Zurab Vanishvili.
The lawyer added that an employee can appeal to the court and restore his/her labor contract and reimbursement of the damage. S/he can also launch criminal case against employer because of abuse of his/her power.
