Subject of Dispute: A Serviceman’s Right to Compensation for Loss of Income Due to Violation of Indexation Payment Terms for Monetary Allowance.
Main Arguments of the Court:
1. Indexation and compensation funds are a component of wages with a compensatory nature, aimed at maintaining the employee’s real income level.
2. The court deviates from previous practice and considers that such disputes should be subject to the terms of the Labor Code (3 months), rather than administrative proceedings (1 month).
3. The dispute about indexation of monetary allowance is essentially a labor dispute about wages, despite the fact that the plaintiff is a serviceman.
Court Decision: Revoke the appellate court’s resolution and refer the case for a new hearing.
