The employee demanded compensation for 5 years of bullying. The employer was de facto passive and no real action was performed. The employee quit the job and filed a lawsuit. The Supreme Court has decided that the Labour code also protects employee’s health. As an employer is responsible for the prevention of bullying, the compensation should also be preventive and educational – it is not only a simple reimbursement or compensation for non-pecuniary damage (files signature – I PK 206/16).
