감사 해임통보 무효 확인 및 미지급 임금·퇴직금 청구 사건
결과 요약
- 근로자의 해임통보 무효 확인 청구는 소의 이익이 없어 각하됨.
- 근로자의 미지급 임금 및 퇴직금 청구는 근로자가 근로기준법상 근로자에 해당하지 않고, 보수 및 퇴직금 지급 약정도 인정되지 않아 기각됨.
사실관계
- 회사는 광섬유케이블 개발·제조업 등을 목적으로 하는 회사임.
- 근로자는 2013. 10. 8. 회사의 감사로 취임하여 2016. 3. 31. 임기가 만료되었음.
- 회사의 공동대표이사는 2016. 10. 21. 근로자에게 2016. 10. 20.부로 해임 통보를 하였음.
- 근로자는 2017. 3. 8. 회사의 감사직에서 자진 사임서를 제출하였고, 회사가 이를 수리하였음.
핵심 쟁점, 법리 및 법원의 판단
해임통보 무효 확인 청구의 소의 이익 유무
- 기간을 정한 근로계약에서 해고 처분 후 근로계약기간이 만료된 경우, 그 해고 처분이 무효라 하더라도 근로자의 신분을 회복할 수 없어 무효 확인 청구는 과거의 법률관계 확인 청구에 지나지 않음.
- 특별히 그 무효 확인을 구하는 것이 해고처분으로 인한 현재의 권리 또는 법률상 지위에 대한 위험이나 불안을 제거하기 위한 유효, 적절한 수단이라고 할 만한 사정이 없는 한 소의 이익을 인정할 수 없음.
- 근로자는 감사 임기가 2016. 3. 31. 만료되었고, 2017. 3. 8. 감사직에서 사임하여 해당 사안 변론종결일 현재 감사로서의 지위를 회복하는 것이 불가능함.
- 따라서 해당 사안 해임통보 무효 확인 청구는 확인의 이익을 인정하기 어렵고, 임금 및 퇴직금 미지급과 같은 불이익은 손해배상 청구 등 더 직접적인 구제수단이 있으므로 적절한 권리구제수단이라고 볼 수 없음.
- 법원은 근로자의 해임통보 무효 확인 청구는 부적법하므로 각하함.
관련 판례 및 법령
- 대법원 2000. 5. 18. 선고 95재다199 판결
미지급 임금 및 퇴직금 지급 청구 (근로자의 근로기준법상 근로자 해당 여부)
- 주식회사의 이사, 감사 등 임원은 회사로부터 일정한 사무처리의 위임을 받고 있는 것이므로, 사용자의 지휘·감독 아래 일정한 근로를 제공하고 소정의 임금을 받는 고용관계에 있는 것이 아니며, 따라서 일정한 보수를 받는 경우에도 이를 근로기준법 소정의 임금이라 할 수 없음.
- 다만, 계약의 형식에 관계없이 그 실질에 있어서 임금을 목적으로 종속적 관계에서 사용자에게 근로를 제공하였는지 여부에 따라 근로기준법의 적용을 받는 근로자에 해당하는지 여부를 판단해야 함.

- 근로자와 피고 사이에 구체적인 근무내용 및 조건을 정한 근로계약서가 제출되지 않았고, 근로자가 감사 취임 후 저렴한 가격에 주식을 양수하였는데 이는 투자금 유치 업무의 대가를 미리 지급받은 것으로 보임.
- 근로자가 주장하는 급여 인상에 대한 별다른 증거가 없는 점 등을 종합하면, 근로자가 피고 대표이사의 지휘·감독을 받는 근로기준법상 근로자에 해당한다고 보기 어려움.
