Court of Cassation, with sentence no. 3056/2012 states that the indemnity provided by Law no. 183/2010 (“Collegato Lavoro”) represents a lump sum, all-embracing penalty, including all the damages suffered for the contract term invalidity. Such penalty covers the period from the term expiration until the sentence stating it invalidity and declaring the requalification of the employment. This interpretation is the only one in compliance with law. The bill for the labour law reform includes a provision confirming the interpretation of the Court of Cassation.
