The Supreme Court of Finland dismissed the employee's claim for work-related injury compensation regarding a torn surgical implant. The employee argued the implant failure constituted a workplace accident, while the employer contended it was a manufacturing defect. The court ruled that the failure of the implant was a product defect rather than an accidental event during work, thus excluding it from work injury coverage.
