Labour Court finds employer breached employment terms law, makes no further award

The Labour Court allowed Lucian Liviu Ionut's appeal, finding that his employer had breached the law by failing to provide written employment terms. The decision is dated 16 February 2024 and set aside the Adjudication Officer's decision. The Court made no further compensation award in this appeal. Ionut said he had never received the required statement, and Vladimir Vecerin Pepito Trade accepted that none had been provided. The Court said compensation for this breach was capped at four weeks' pay. It had already awarded the maximum in a separate appeal concerning a breach of the same section during the same period, so it could not award further compensation here.
