The Supreme Court of Finland allowed partial compensation for the plaintiff's knee injury sustained while assisting an elderly person transfer from a toilet to a wheelchair. The plaintiff suffered an acute knee injury when the elderly person's feet slipped, forcing him to support them in a twisted position and lower them to the floor. The court ruled that the injury was a direct result of the work duties under the Workmen's Accident Insurance Act, granting compensation for the partial tear of the inner knee joint.
