A Krasnoyarsk resident sued the company for 15 thousand for refusing employment without explanation.

A resident of Krasnoyarsk obtained compensation through the court for an unmotivated refusal to work. The Kirovsky District Court partially upheld the claim against JSC Evolenta and recovered 15 thousand rubles in moral damages from the company.

The man saw an advertisement on VKontakte for a vacancy for a QA specialist (responsible for the quality of an IT product). The condition of employment was completion of training from the employer. Abdrakhmanov successfully completed the course, and the head of the training department said that she transferred his data with a recommendation to the human resources department. However, he was refused a job, and the reason was never explained.

In court, representatives of Evolenta insisted that “QA specialist” is the name of the course, not a position. They said the advertisement did not promise employment, but only the opportunity to complete a paid internship after training. Moreover, according to the defendant, at that time there was simply no vacancy.

The court sided with the plaintiff, pointing out that the employer is obliged to justify the refusal to hire. Since the company did not do this, the refusal was declared illegal and monetary compensation was awarded. The court did not satisfy the demands to impose an obligation to conclude an employment contract and to collect wages.
