The Insurance Court of Finland allowed a 12.76% increase in the pensioner's monthly allowance following a three-to-two vote. The court determined that the pensioner's salary was reduced by 3,062.28 marks due to a six-week strike in 1980 and further reductions from employment training in 1981 and 1982. Applying Section 7, Paragraph 2 of the Employees' Pension Act, the court ruled that these specific salary reductions justified the corresponding increase in the pension benefit.
