The Finnish Insurance Court dismissed the employee's claim to receive a 5,800 mark bonus as an addition to 1971 annual earnings. The employer argued that bonuses must be integrated into the year in which the work was performed, not the year of payment. The court upheld this rule, ruling that the bonus belongs to the 1971 earnings calculation regardless of the 1972 payment date.
