Labour Law
A significant part of the work done in our office consists of commission agreements concerning Labour Law. Our clients are employers, trade unions and individual workers.
Attorneys-at-Law Aappo Salo and Otto Ääri are responsible for taking care of the cases concerning Labour Law. In cases which end up in court it is crucial to posses a sufficient knowledge of Labour Law and to produce the right claims, the right grounds and the evidence to support these presented claims.
We have assisted our clients in different disputes relating to termination of employment. In these cases the termination of employment has been done by the collective argument or by the individual argument. We have also assisted our clients in other claims based on employment contracts and the law of obligations.
We also constantly assist our business clients in applying the binding norms of the Labour Law to the employment relationships of their company's workers. The essential sets of norms, which obligate the employer and relate to the employment relationships, are e.g.: the Employment Contracts Act, the Collective Agreements Act, the Act on Co-operation Within Undertakings, the Working Hours Act, the Annual Holidays Act, the Occupational Safety and Health Act and the Act on the Protection of Privacy in Working Life.
In addition there is also legislation relating to working relationships in the Penal Code of Finland, in the Unfair Business Practises Act and in several other specific acts.
