Spanish labor court rulings on wrongful dismissals
Overview
Recent judicial rulings in Spain have addressed cases of unjustified and discriminatory dismissals within the labor sector.
In La Rioja, the Superior Court of Justice ordered a company to pay approximately 62,598 euros to a nurse dismissed after raising complaints about staffing shortages. The court ruled the termination unjustified, noting the employee had no prior disciplinary record despite the company’s allegations of professional misconduct. The ruling requires the company to either reinstate the nurse or provide the specified compensation.
In Navarre, the High Court of Justice declared the dismissal of a seasonal worker null and void. The worker had requested exclusive night shifts to manage childcare responsibilities, a request the company refused by citing organizational and productivity reasons. The court found no evidence of poor performance to support the dismissal and ruled it was a discriminatory decision. Consequently, the company was ordered to reinstate the employee, pay unpaid wages, and provide 30,000 euros in compensation for moral damages.
