The employer’s obligation to justify termination of an employment contract – selected comments

Summary/Abstract: The article addresses the issue of the employer’s obligation to provide reasons for terminating an employment contract, taking into account the amendments to the Labour Code of 26 April 2023. It presents the current legal framework, including the extension of the duty to state the grounds for termination to fixed-term contracts and the employee’s right to request justification in the case of probationary contracts. The analysis covers both employee-related and non-employee-related reasons for termination, as well as specific regulations concerning contracts concluded with juvenile employees. The article also discusses inadmissible grounds for termination, arising directly from labour law provisions as well as those developed through the case law of the Supreme Court.
