Y.B., a client of “LSA” Law Firm, will receive over 71 million AMD in compensation from ” VEEAM Armenia” LLC for being unlawfully dismissed from work, in accordance with the judicial act adopted and entered into force in civil case No. ED2/1514/02/24.
Armenian labor law protects and guarantees employees’ rights, and there are judges who have the will and determination to enforce this legislation. In this context, we would like to extend special thanks to the judges of the First Instance and Appellate Courts—Kima Arzumanyan, Gayane Khachatryan, Davit Serobyan, and Narine Barseghyan—for making a legal, objective, and fair decision and awarding justice compensation for the violation of our client’s rights.
Our firm’s experience shows that violations of legislative requirements in labor relations are quite common. Employers, during the dismissal process, often fail to ensure workers’ employment guarantees, do not correctly formulate the reasons for dismissal, and do not give the employee the opportunity to present explanations about the situation. This opens the door for dismissals to be challenged in court and for employees to receive substantial compensation from companies.
Therefore, we urge entrepreneurs operating in Armenia to be more attentive towards their employees—do not unlawfully dismiss workers and do not violate their rights protected by the Constitution and Labor Code.
The case was handled by attorneys Tatevik Malkhasyan and Edgar Ayvazyan.
