The Labour Court rejected the Finnish Union of Health and Social Services (JHL) appeal against the employer's decision to deny annual leave. The employer argued that granting leave would disrupt essential care services, while the union claimed the refusal violated statutory leave rights. The court ruled that the employer's operational justification was valid and did not override the employee's entitlement to leave.
