[Legal Times] [Employment/Labor] Hyundai Motor's 'Poor Job Performance' Justified Termination

On January 28, 2024, the Legal Times reported the latest litigation win by Lee&Ko. The 3rd Division of the Supreme Court (Chief Justice Seok-jun Oh) held that Hyundai Motor Company’s termination of Employee A for poor job performance was justified, thereby ordering the cancellation of the Central Labor Relations Commission’s decision. As a result, the Supreme Court’s decision reversed the district court’s affirmation and remanded the case to the Seoul High Court in favor of Hyundai Motor Company. Lee&Ko served as counsel to Hyundai Motor Company in the Supreme Court.
