The court affirmed the right to retrospective regularization of services and pension benefits for temporary workers after five years of service, emphasizing adherence to prior judicial directives.
The acceptance of a regularization condition precludes the claim for retrospective appointment.
Long-term service in irregular employment merits regularization despite procedural non-compliance, reaffirming equal treatment rights under Article 14 of the Constitution.
Regularization of service does not confer the right to retrospective benefits from the date of initial appointment; such benefits are contingent upon the terms of regularization.
Regularisation of service must be prospective to avoid affecting the seniority of regularly appointed employees, as established by Supreme Court precedents.
Claims for retrospective regularization and promotion must be timely and justified; seniority rules govern promotions.
