The Labour Court rejected the Finnish Electrical Trades Union's appeal against the employer's decision to deny annual leave. The employer argued that granting leave would disrupt essential operations, while the union claimed the employee was entitled to the statutory break. The court ruled that the employer's operational needs did not justify overriding the employee's legal right to annual leave.
