He argues that the agreement does not apply that that he has effectively been terminated from his employment. This was the situation in an Appellate Court ruling from 2022. In this podcast episode we will look at the ruling to see if there is anything we can learn from it that can be used the next time you negotiate a settlement agreement.
In this episode of Norwegian Employment law in 10 Minutes, we explain the rules on the use of non-contingent work force.
