Key legal question
Whether Art. 331(3) OR applies to a foundation whose assets were wholly financed by the employer and where employees were never obliged to contribute.
Extracted holding
Art. 331(3) OR does not apply where employees are not required to make contributions and the assets were financed exclusively by the employer.
Extracted reasoning
The wording, purpose, history, and system of the provision show it is meant to prevent use of employee-financed free assets solely for the employer's benefit; that rationale is absent in a purely patronal fund.
