English translation of the principle
The criterion for the worker’s entitlement to payment in respect of travel tickets is that he be performing his work during the period claimed. The rationale thereof: this payment is linked to his taking his annual leave. The challenged judgment’s departure from this view. It vitiates it and requires its partial quashing. This is not altered by what the Public Prosecution raised concerning the appeal being directed against the judgment terminating the proceedings issued on 18/9/2005 rather than the judgment issued on 23/11/2003 establishing the respondent’s entitlement to that allowance. The basis thereof. An example. - 812 - Labour

مناط استحقاق العامل مقابل تذاكر السفر أن يكون قائماً بعمله خلال فترة المطالبة. علة ذلك: ارتباط هذا المقابل بقيامه بإجازته السنوية. مخالفة الحكم المطعون فيه هذا النظر. يعيبه ويُوجب تمييزه جزئياً. لا يغير من ذلك ما أثارته النيابة من ورود الطعن على الحكم المنهي للخصومة الصادر في ١٨/٩/٢٠٠٥ دون الحكم الصادر في ٢٣/١١/٢٠٠٣ بأحقية المطعون ضده في ذلك البدل. أساس ذلك. مثال. - ٨١٢ - عملOriginal Arabic judgment citations
