Court Orders Saku AB to Pay Over 7,000 to Former Employee

Harju County Court partially upheld a former employee's claim against AS Saku AB. The man left his job following an alleged assault that caused skull and facial fractures, a broken denture, and hospitalised him for a week.

Harju County Court has ordered AS Saku AB to pay a former employee over 7,000, partially upholding his claim against the company. The case stems from an alleged assault in which the man sustained serious injuries — including skull and facial fractures and a broken denture — and spent a week in hospital.

The court ordered the company to pay outstanding wages, travel allowances, holiday pay, compensation for termination of employment, and interest. The man was forced to leave his job following the alleged incident because his work capacity was significantly impaired by his injuries.

AS Saku AB is a well-known manufacturing company in Estonia. The court ruling indicates that a dispute between employer and employee has found partial resolution through legal proceedings, though the claim was only partially upheld, meaning the court did not support all of the man's claims in full.
