E) Citing:
Although the court has decided to accept the case on the grounds that it is not the plaintiff who caused the incident , the defendant’s witness statements are consistent with the plaintiff’s use of the words “ retarded, retarded” for another worker when the written statements of other workers referred to in the workplace investigation are taken into account.
In this case, the plaintiff’s words to another worker working in the workplace are offensive and the termination of the employer according to Article 25/2-d of the law No. 4857 is understood to be based on a justified reason, so the acceptance of the case instead of rejection is wrong.
In accordance with Article 20/3 of the Labour Law No. 4857, our office has decided as follows.
Provision: with the justification described above;
1. Overturning the court’s decision,
2. Dismisses case,
