The Labour Court rejected the Finnish Trade Union Pro's appeal against the employer's decision to terminate Sun Sauna Oy's employment contract. The union argued that the employee's actions did not constitute gross misconduct warranting immediate dismissal, while the employer maintained the breach was severe. The court found the employer's assessment of the misconduct justified and upheld the termination.
