(4 years ago)The Kosovo Energy Corporation (KEK) will be tasked with paying 3m and 300 thousand euros over its 900 workers. The workers will receive an average of 3 thousand euros each for the work done during weekend days, which were not previously paid. The case has received the final legal epilogue of [...]
KEK has lost a court case to over 900 of its workers and will therefore be obliged to pay them 3.3m euros.
This amount of money will be given to the workers in compensation for their weekends, between 2011 and 2018.
This case, the workers had won over KEK on the first two steps of courts, which KEK had ordered to pay the plaintiffs compensation in the form of additional salaries they were not paid for on weekends.
While the KEK had rejected this by setting forth a revised request to the Supreme Court, which it rejected as unfounded.
But KEK's management had not stopped. His battle had continued at the Constitutional Court. There he had asked the court to assess the constitutionality of the Supreme Court of Kosovo's Act.
But, several-year-old saga for 3.3m euros has received final epilog on Tuesday, September 2022.
On September 27, the Constitutional Court has ruled through which it has confirmed the Supreme decision.
According to the Constitutional assessment, the Supreme has not violated constitutional provisions, with the grant of fair workers for compensation for work during weekend days.
The Court, in turn, analysed the claims of the pre-excussive request and concluded that all the laws disputed by the content meet the criteria of an reasoned court ruling, which is precisely in line with the requirements of Article 160 paragraph 4 of the LPK. From the above, the pre-torture claims of the petition for violating Article 31 of the Constitution in the context of unreasonable court rulings, the Court dismissed them as claims which fall in the category (ii) claims of “unsupported or unreasonable”, the Constitutional Court said in the act of ruling.
Regarding the Constitutional Decision on Paparac on Tuesday, KEK employee lawyer Xhedin Osmani has also spoken.
He has said the Constitution has already come up with the decision and that the force of workers for compensation is already in the final procedure.
The constitutional decision has been made. Now they're procedures, now it's the subject at the guard's”, Ousman said.
