Key legal question
Whether the employee abused rights by invoking pregnancy dismissal protection in temporary employment
Extracted holding
No abuse of rights was shown; the notice was null because it was given during the statutory protection period while the employee was pregnant.
Extracted reasoning
The pregnancy protection of Art. 336c CO applies to a fixed-term mission contract like any ordinary employment contract. The agency's inability to assign another mission does not create an exceptional circumstance justifying abuse of rights.
