The Labour Court dismissed the Finnish Insurance Workers' Union's appeal against the employer's decision to deny sick leave. The union argued that the employee's work capacity was insufficient to justify the refusal, while the employer contended the employee could not perform duties. The court ruled that the employer's assessment of the employee's inability to work was reasonable and supported by evidence.
