Kernrechtsfrage
Whether the employee’s claim for additional expense reimbursement was forfeited or abused rights because it was raised only after about ten months
Extrahierter Entscheid
No forfeiture or abuse of rights was established; the employee could still invoke reimbursement beyond the agreed lump sum.
Extrahierte Begründung
A delayed claim is not abusive by itself. Special circumstances are required, such as prejudice to the employer or an unconscionable attempt to gain an unfair advantage. The record showed no such circumstances, and the employee reacted within a tolerable period after realizing the lump sum was insufficient.
