Unjust Ruling by Supreme Court ― In the Lawsuit against Disguised Contracting of Matsushita Plasma Display

On the December 18 afternoon, the Second Petty Bench of the Supreme Court (chaired by Chief Justice Yukio Takeuchi) gave an unjust ruling rejecting all items in Mr. Tsutomu Yoshioka's petition except for the one for compensation for harassment toward Mr. Yoshioka (Mobile cell phone flash by Ko Kurogane).
Unjustly dismissed after accusing Matsushita Plasma Display for its disguised contracting practices, Mr. Tsutomu won a complete victory on April 25 at the Osaka High Court when the court ordered that the dismissal be revoked. The epoch-making significance of the High Court ruling lies in that the disguised contracting Mr. Yoshioka was forced to be engaged in was tried under the Article 6 of the Labor Standards Law banning intermediate exploitation as well as Article 44 of the Employment Security Law banning the worker brokering business, which ruling gave hope to non-regular workers. The recent ruling of the Supreme Court absolutely denied the High Court decision. A reporting rally will be held at the Tokyo Metropolitan Employment Service Center in the evening. (Yoshioka-kai)
