English translation of the principle

Promotion is not an acquired right of the worker, even if he meets all the nomination conditions, whenever the company's internal regulations and the promotion system in force therein do not oblige it to grant it, and as long as its decision is free of any suspicion of arbitrariness and abuse of authority. Example.
Arabic original
الترقية ليست حقاً مكتسباً للعامل حتى ولو توافرت فيه جميع شروط الترشيح متى كانت اللائحة الداخلية للشركة ونظام الترقيات المعمول به لديها لا يلزمها بذلك وما دام أن قرارها قد خلا من شبهة التعسف وإساءة استعمال السلطة. مثال.
