Kernrechtsfrage
Whether the oral employment contract was fixed-term or indefinite
Extrahierter Entscheid
The employer failed to prove a fixed-term agreement; the contract was deemed indefinite.
Extrahierte Begründung
The cantonal court’s appraisal of evidence was not arbitrary. Post-contract statements and unilateral explanations could not prove a common real intention at the time of conclusion. In doubt, and absent a clear temporal limitation, an indefinite contract must be assumed.
