The Labour Court rejected the Finnish Trade Union Pro's appeal against the employer's decision to terminate Gasmet Systems Oy's employee for gross misconduct. The union argued that the termination violated the employee's right to due process and fair treatment under labour law principles. The court upheld the employer's decision, finding that the employee's actions constituted a serious breach of duty justifying immediate dismissal without prior warning.
