Insurance court rules compensation for criminal loss of employment must be based on actual lost earnings, not reduced amounts.

The Finnish Insurance Court ordered compensation for the criminal loss of employment to be calculated based on the employee's actual lost earnings rather than a reduced figure. The applicant argued that the insurer had improperly deducted sickness insurance benefits from the total loss calculation. The court held that the statutory basis for criminal loss of employment requires compensation for the true economic loss, meaning any prior sickness insurance payments must be subtracted from the gross loss to determine the net amount payable.
