The Court of Bari, with sentence no. 2636, of 10 June 2019, stated to be legitimate the dismissal with just cause of an employee, based on the fact that he, by improperly installing the Facebook chat on the company smartphone, as well as using it to enter into private conversations during working hours, revealed confidential information to competing companies.

These circumstances, according to the Court, in addition to constituting a serious disciplinary offense, integrate a violation of the duties of correctness and good faith, as well as the contractual obligations of diligence and loyalty, thus integrating just cause for dismissal.
